Shear-Wave Velocity (Vs) Surveys Collected in Fredericktown, Missouri, June 2018
In June 2018, U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) collected geophysical measurements to help evaluate the suitability of a proposed landfill site for disposing mine-waste materials in Fredericktown, MO. Shear-wave (Vs) refraction surveys were collected to measure the shear-wave velocity of the subsurface, which can be used for estimating the depth to rock with the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) passive seismic reconnaissance method. A secondary objective was to determine the depth of interfaces for comparison to the resistivity surveys and frequency domain electromagnetic profiles.
