ACOUSTIC AND SHEAR-WAVE VELOCITIES IN HYDRATE-BEARING SEDIMENTS OFFSHORE SOUTHWESTERN TAIWAN: TOMOGRAPHY, CONVERTED WAVES ANALYSIS AND REVERSE-TIME MIGRATION OF OBS RECORDS

A 2.5-D combined seismic reflection and refraction survey has been conducted in the accretionary complex offshore of southwestern Taiwan where BSRs (Bottom Simulating Reflectors) are highly concentrated and geochemical signals for the presence of gas hydrate are strong.In this study, we perform velocity analysis of the 6 4-component OBS Royal Jelly

Upper Permian rocks of the former supercontinent Gondwana record climax late Paleozoic terrestrial vertebrate faunas that were dominated numerically and ecologically by therapsid synapsids.Older faunal elements of earlier Paleozoic faunas, such as captorhinid reptiles, are rare and scattered components of the first amniote faunas to inhabit high-la
