- Description:
- The orientation of the Earth is defined by Earth orientation parameters that are measured by space geodetic techniques. The results provided by these techniques differ from each other. The method presented here combines these results in order to get a representative solution of the Earth orientation parameters. Other products of the method are improved coordinates and velocities of collocations stations distributed on six major and two minor tectonic plates. The fact that the stations lie on their plates gives us possibility to describe movements of these plates during our data interval. All new results are compared with the ones published by ITRF 2005 and presented hereafter., Vojtěch Štefka., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Description:
- Fractures commonly existing in rocks flow on their elastic properties and hence on velocity of seismic waves propagating in the rock mass. This relation allows to use seismic methods to determine the fracture density and the orientation of fracture sets. This paper presents results of the research which concern directional changes of dynamic elastic moduli in sedimentary and igneous rocks from south part of Poland. These moduli depend on density of the rock matrix as well as density and orientation of cracks and flow on seismic wave velocity. The seismic equipment Terraloc MK6 (ABEM) was used for the measurements of seismic wave velocity in the surface layers of rock mass. The research was made along precise oriented radial seismic profiles. P-waves and S-waves ve locities were established from recorded seism ograms. The values of P and S waves velocity allowed to calculate values of dynamic elastic moduli for all profiles. The results were presented on diagrams of azimuth distribution of elastic moduli, and diagrams of dynamic elastic moduli versus P - wave velocity. The diagrams showed an anisotropy of elastic properties of the investigated rocks. The maximal values of moduli agree with maximal values of velocity and also with orientation of main crack sets or potential directions of weakening of rock mass. Obtained results point that the seismic methods allow to assign the directions of weakening of rocks what can be for example use during preliminary designing, constructing and exploitation of tunnels., Iwona Stan - Kleczek and Adam F.

- Language:

- Description:
- A new way of identification of minerals was suggested. The identification was based on chemometric analysis of measured IR spectra of selected minerals. IR spectra were collected using diffuse reflectance technique. The discriminant analysis and principal component analysis were used as chemometric methods. Five statistical models were created for separation and identification of clay minerals. Up to 60 samples of various mineral standards (clay minerals, feldspars, carbonates, sulphates and quartz) from different localities were selected for the creation of statistical models. The results of this study confirm that the discriminant analysis of IR spectra of minerals could provide a powerful tool for mineral identification. Even differentiation of muscovite from illite and identification of mixed structures of illite-smectite were achieved., Michal Ritz, Lenka Vaculíková and Eva Plevová., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Description:
- Classical Russian pendulum seismometer S-5-S was modified for recording of the rotational components of ground motion around the vertical or horizontal axes; the modified sensor is denoted here as S-5-SR. Experimental field testing of the S-5-SR sensor started in December 2010 in the Karvina coal region that is known as an area of intensive mining induced seismicity. First seismic station was installed in Doubrava village characterized by thick sedimentary layers. Next seismic station was installed in Orlova village, in different local geological conditions, i.e. in region without sedimentary layers. More than 200 mining induced seismic events were recorded on each seismic station during the period of six months of seismic monitoring. The recorded wave patterns confirm the existence of rotational ground motion components in this region; the strongest recorded value of this component exceeded 1 mrad.s-1. Analysis of the obtained records is presented in this paper., Zdeněk Kaláb, Jaromír Knejzlík and Markéta Lednická., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Description:
- The paper presents the preliminary results of the analysis of two archival SAR datasets acquired by ERS-1/2 satellites of the same area of Roznow Lake in Southern Poland. Both datasets cover the same period of 8 years (1992 - 2000) and refers to the same area by the 50% of overlap between the neighbouring satellite tracks. The main purpose of this analysis was to derive the overlapping data about deformation velocity calculated using PSI (Persistent Scatterers Interferometry). The presented PSI results refer to PS (Persistent Scatterers) located on active landslides and therefore representing landslide movement. In Polish Carpathians, due to sparse urbanization, vegetation and rough relief the obtained PS density is usually not very high and generally difficult to interpret. The application of two overlapping datasets, where both of them observe the same phenomena, allow to cross-validate the data by identification of common PS points. For two datasets acquired from different tracks, usually many PS are not common and occur at different locations. Such situation could be explained by the difference between the incidence angles for both acquisitions. In a case of two tracks and therefore different terrain objects might act as PS. By joining the PS point sets from such neighbouring tracks the density of PS could be significantly increased. In order to perform a PSI analysis of Roznow Lake the data acquired from 179 and 408 tracks have been used and a few hundred of PS were obtained from PSI processing. For both tracks similar deformations velocity were obtained within a range of +/- 6 mm/yr. The PS points on active landslides are usually related to the buildings (walls, roofs) and roads affected usually by high risk., Zbigniew Perski, Andrzej Borkowski, Tomasz Wojciechowski and Antoni Wójcik., and Obsahuje bibliografii

- Description:
- This paper presents the results of geophysical survey performed in the Pilawa River valley in the area of Middle Pomerania (Poland). The resistivity imaging method was applied. Resistivity profile measuring eight hundred metres allowed to investigate the geologic structure to the depth of 150 metres. The resistivity cross section shows the structure of Pleistocene sediments and the depth of Miocene - Pleistocene boundary. The significant lowering of the boundary is related to assumable ice-sheet margin range of Pomeranian phase of North Polish Glaciation. The lowering of the boundary may be a result of sediments compaction and the subglacial tunnel slope as well., Bogdan Żogała, Ryszard Dubiel, Józef Lewandowski, Waclaw M.

- Description:
- Depletion of exploited mineral ore resources and their constant price increase have contributed to active interest in recognition and exploitation of new workable deposits. Exploration work which has been carried out in the vicinity of non-exploited ore areas such as Klucze, Zawiercie and Laski results in confirmation of Zn-Pb commercial deposits. In this region Zn-Pb ores occur in the Devonian and Triassic carbonate formation at a depth of 70 - 80 metres under the surface. Geological recognition is based on the analysis of data taken from bore-holes. To determine the mode of the ores occurrence and service conditions, it is necessity to work out a spatial image of overburden structure. For this reason resistivity measurements with highly distributed LUND Imaging System were introduced in the area of Zawiercie I. The studies were carried out according to three measuring protocols: Schlumberger, Wenner and dipole-dipole. The measurements were performed along three parallel six-hundred-metre profiles. The resistivity cross sections were elaborated using Res2D software. The results of the geophysical research were correlated with the data taken from bore-holes in order to testing the efficiency of applied geoelectrical methods. The study showed a significant diversification of geoelectric characteristics of the rockmass and thus it allowed to recognise accurately the overburden structure of the deposit and to locate precisely zones of faulting. In future, the applied geoelectrical methods are certainly to be used for localization ore bodies at a considarable depth range., Krzysztof Jochymczyk, Jerzy Cabala and Artur Poreba., and Obsahuje bibliografii
