We carried out an seismic explosion survey at Taal volcano in March, 1993. The explosions were done at the west of the volcanic island and digital event recorders were deployed along a fan-shooting survey line at the east of the volcanic island and also along a short straight survey line across the island. Small-aperture arrays were also operated at two sites west of the volcanic island. We found that P waves that traveled just beneath the main crater strongly attenuated and showed later arrivals. This result suggests the existence of a low-velocity and low-Q region around the main crater at a depth of about 1.5km, although the location and extent cannot be determined exactly. P wave velocity of this abnormal region may be eatimated to be lower than that of the surroundings by much greater than about 25%, if we assume the region is restricted just beneath the main crater. We applied the NMO correction to the later part of seismograms and found a reflector around the east of the main crater at a depth of about 6km, which may suggest the top surface of the magma reservoir. |
