Finite difference forward modelling was used to address the detectability of a local strong attenuation zone.
Velocity and density structure of the model was based on the Athabasca Basin geophysical borehole log.
Attenuation was represented using quality factor Q, and introduced to the model as four different
configurations; no attenuation, layered attenuation, constant attenuation, and localized attenuation. An
explosive source generating Ricker wavelet with dominant frequency of 60Hz, and horizontal and vertical
lines of receivers were applied to the models to represent seismic surveys. Simulation results showing
wave propagations and seismic traces of different models were assessed and compared.
