Definition of seismic reflection in English: seismic reflectionnoun mass nounGeology The reflection of elastic waves at boundaries between different rock formations, especially as a technique for prospecting or research. Example sentencesExamples - The upcoming experiment will be conducted using both seismic reflection and refraction techniques to probe deep within the subduction zone.
- Bransfield Strait is presently undergoing extension based on high heat flow, active volcanoes and seismic reflection work.
- The geometrical relationships within and between depositional sequences are observable from geophysical data, particularly seismic reflection profiles, which represent an acoustic image through a rock sequence.
- The simplest and most prevalent stratigraphic sections consist of images of impedance contrasts detected by seismic reflection.
- In contrast, the overwhelmingly clastic Palaeozoic section is largely unreflective and seismic reflection interpretation of Palaeozoic horizons is highly speculative in many areas.
- It is commonly displayed in seismic reflection data as a low-frequency, high-amplitude double reflection.
