p. 59, Figure 2.36. Vertical and horizontal are transposed. The horizontal lines are timing lines at 10 ms intervals; each vertical trace represents one geophone's response.
p. 141, Problems 3.1-3.3. PDF versions of the figures are online:
p. 73 Eqn. 3.19 has an extra = sign. Eqn. 3.20 has two extra = signs
p. 74 Eqn 3.21 has an extra = sign
p. 122 In the text between eqs. 3.71 and 3.72 should say Tgf = Tgr instead of Tgf + Tgr
p. 144, problem 3.7. Distance units are meters. Time units are ms.
p. 144, problem 3.8. Distance units are meters. Time units are ms.
p. 144, Problem 3.9. The data file was omitted from the CD but can be downloaded here. It is a data file for use with the Refract code included with the text (you have to open the file by selecting "Open" from the File menu--the file will open best if opened with the Data Window frontmost but will still open correctly if the model window is frontmost). Save the file to disk for use.
p. 145, problem 3.10. Distance units are meters. Time units are ms.
p. 145, problem 3.11. Time units are ms.
p. 146, Problem 3.12. The data file was omitted from the CD but can be downloaded here. It is a data file for use with the Refract code included with the text (you have to open the file by selecting "Open" from the File menu--the file will open best if opened with the Data Window frontmost but will still open correctly if the model window is frontmost). Save the file to disk for use.
p. 146, problem 3.13. Distance units are meters. Time units are ms.
p. 147, problem 3.14. Distance units are meters. Time units are ms.
p. 253, Figure 4.50b, should state "interval velocities," not "internal velocities," on the upper right hand side of Figure 4.50b.
p. 256-7, Figure 4.52. Time scale for Fig. 4.52a is in error; the correct scale was used in 4.52b
p. 469, Table 7-3. There was an error in the Excel file that created this table. A revised version (MS Word file) can be downloaded here. A replacement for dynamic table 7-3 (on the CD) is here.
p. 527, eqn. 8.49, l/4 l (1/4 lambda) = 20 cm, not 2 cm
p. 535, Fig. 8.20(c), for clarity, the "V" should have a subscript "1"
CD: Please replace dynamic table 7-3 with this corrected Excel file. Note that updaters to the software are available elsewhere
