Description for Theory of Seismic Imaging
Paperback. This advanced text presents the physical and mathematical bases of imaging algorithms in the context of controlled-source reflection seismology. The approach taken is motivated by physical optics and theoretical seismology. The material may be used for a one-term postgraduate course. Series: Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences. Num Pages: 306 pages, 50 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PDE; RBC; TBJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (XV) Technical / Manuals. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 17. Weight in Grams: 480.
Seismic imaging methods are currently used to produce images of the Earth's subsurface properties at diverse length scales, from high-resolution, near-surface environmental studies for oil and gas exploration to long-period images of the entire planet. This book presents the physical and mathematical basis of imaging algorithms in the context of controlled-source reflection seismology. The approach taken is motivated by physical optics and theoretical seismology. The theory is constantly put into practice via a graded sequence of computer exercises using the widely available SU (Seismic Unix) software package.
