Physical Properties of Marine Sediments

Fig. 2.21 (a) S-wave velocity versus P-wave velocity and (b) shear modulus versus bulk modulus derived from least
square inversion based on Biot-Stoll’s theory for the four sediment cores 40KL, 47KL, GeoB2821-1, and PS2567-2.
The dotted line indicates an asymptote parallel to the shear modulus axis which crosses the value for the bulk
modulus of seawater K f = 2370 MPa on the bulk modulus axis. NFO and FNO as in Figure 2.19. Modified after
Breitzke (2000).
