the conventional approach to seismic data analysis consists of two main steps: estimating seismic velocities, (the subsurface macro-model), and seismic imaging, (mapping of the reflected seismic energy to the reflector positions). the aim and the major challenge in the seismic data analysis is the construction of the best undistorted image. this challenge would be more problematic when geometri...

A new seismic reflection survey for imaging deeper levels of the end-glacial Pärvie fault system in northern Sweden was acquired in June 2014. The Pärvie fault system hosts the largest fault scarp so far documented in northern Scandinavia, both in terms of its length and calculated magnitude of the earthquake that generated it. Present-day microearthquakes occur along the length of the fault sc...

Data components with well-defined moveout other than primary reflections are sometimes called coherent noise. Coherent noise makes velocity analysis ambiguous, since no single velocity function explains incompatible moveouts simultaneously. Contemporary data processing treats the control of coherent noise influence on velocity as an interpretive step. Dual regularization theory suggests an alte...

near-surface variations can be very complex and may distort amplitudes and arrival times of the reflections events from target reflectors. near-surface complexities include topographic variations, near-surface irregularities, variations in soil conditions and the weathered layer. these perturbations generally have a significant impact on seismic recordings. although there is a general agreement...

In what case do you like reading so much? What about the type of the processing of seismic reflection data using matlab book? The needs to read? Well, everybody has their own reason why should read some books. Mostly, it will relate to their necessity to get knowledge from the book and want to read just to get entertainment. Novels, story book, and other entertaining books become so popular thi...

Coogan and DeCelles (1996) provided a welcome addition to the debate on the Sevier Desert reflection. The evidence and arguments presented on the nature of this subsurface feature merit particular scrutiny, as they bear directly on a firstorder issue in tectonics: the mechanical paradox of low-angle normal faults. Field geologists have argued that in some cases such faults must have moved at di...

The propagation of near-failure, soft-fronted stress waves in 5-foot-long, 1-inchdiameter, unconstrained rods of dry 20-30 Ottawa sand is studied. The input is created by a shock tube, modified to yield soft-fronted, long-duration, airpressure loadings. Primary data are displacement-time histories from seven stations along the rod, read by light-sensing gages designed for negligible inertia and...
