摘要

The horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) passive seismic technique uses what is traditionally considered seismic noise or microseisms as a source. The sensitive broadband three-component sensors record ambient (passive) seismic activity at single stations for a set amount of time (~1030 minutes). HVSR analysis is then performed, in which the average of the frequency spectra from the two horizontal components is divided pointwise by the spectrum from the vertical component. A high-amplitude peak in the resulting spectral ratio represents the primary resonance frequency and has an empirical relationship with bedrock depth. Over 350 passive seismic stations were occupied within and adjacent to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigans Upper Peninsula as part of a glacial geomorphology study to determine the glacial drift thickness and general bedrock topography of the region. Unconsolidated drift is thinner (26 m) in the western portion of our study area (near Munising, MI) and thickens to the NE (reaching 4060 m west of Grand Marais, MI). Hidden below this blanket of glacial drift are at least five buried bedrock valleys. All are fairly linear, oriented approximately north-south, and extend between 1 km and more than 12 km south of the Lake Superior shoreline. The maximum depths of the valleys increase from 55 m in the west to almost 120 m in the east. It is likely that they connect to the deep north-south valleys visible in bathymetry of the floor of Lake Superior. While the two western valleys were previously identified, the central valley had only been speculated upon but was unconfirmed, and the eastern two were unknown until this study. Gravity transects over the central valley confirm the existence of a deep valley with low-density fill. These valleys have significant implications to understanding the glacial history and hydrogeology of this region.
