Description
Seismic interferometry is a new field in geophysics that uses multiple scattering events to gain a better understanding of the Earth's subsurface. This book is the first to explain the theory and practice of seismic interferometry, with a focus on its applications in exploration seismology. Each chapter includes exercises and online MATLAB codes to help readers understand the concepts and apply them to synthetic and field data. The book also covers the rigorous mathematics behind seismic interferometry and can be used as a reference for researchers and professionals in the oil industry. It can also be used as a textbook for advanced students in geophysics and petroleum engineering.
Seismic interferometry is an exciting new field in geophysics utilizing multiple scattering events to provide unprecedented views of the Earth's subsurface. This is the first book to describe the theory and practice of seismic interferometry with an emphasis on applications in exploration seismology. Exercises are provided at the end of each chapter, and the text is supplemented by online MATLAB codes that illustrate important ideas and allow readers to generate synthetic traces and invert these to determine the Earth's reflectivity structure. Later chapters reinforce these principles by deriving the rigorous mathematics of seismic interferometry. Incorporating examples that apply interferometric imaging to synthetic and field data, from applied geophysics and earthquake seismology, this book is a valuable reference for academic researchers and oil industry professionals. It can also be used to teach a one-semester course for advanced students in geophysics and petroleum engineering.
