ON ONE THEORETICAL ALGORITHM OF GAS TOMOGRAPHY OF GEOLOGICAL MEDIA
The first version of the theory of gas tomography of geological media has been developed, which, according to the data of surface sampling for gas in the subsurface atmosphere, and on the basis of calculating the gas - dynamic characteristics of gas exchange between the earth's interior and the atmosphere, makes it possible to identify gas - permeable structures in the volume of geological media. The theoretical basis for the construction of tomography algorithms is the methodology of statistical physics applied to one - dimensional channels of gas permeabilities, with a random spatial configuration, and gas - dynamic laws of mass transfer in a randomly structured porous geological medium.
