Figure 5.7a A flushed zone model. The velocity of the<br />

flushed zone gradually decreases until reach the formation<br />

velocity. The flushed zone is described by thin layers.<br />

Figure 5.7b Micro-seismograms recorded in a borehole with a flushed<br />

zone. The amplitude of P wave decays significantly faster than that for the<br />

simple borehole, which indicates that its geometrical spreading effect is<br />

greater than a simple borehole.<br />
