Abstract

The following four seismic methods were used to acquire shear wave velocity control at multiple test sites in the Poplar Bluff study area, southeast Missouri: seismic cone penetrometer test (SCPT), crosshole seismic (CH), multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) and refraction microtremor (ReMi). These four methods were evaluated and ranked in terms of accuracy, functionality, cost, other considerations and overall utility
