Seismic measurements take many forms, and appear to have a universal role in the Earth
Sciences. They are the means for most easily and economically interpreting what lies …

Multiparameter full waveform inversion (FWI) is a challenging quantitative seismic imaging
method for lithological characterization and reservoir monitoring. The difficulties in …

Seismic inverse Q filtering is a data processing technology for enhancing the resolution of
seismic images. It employs a wave propagation reversal procedure that compensates for …

Frequency-based methods for measuring seismic attenuation are used commonly in
exploration geophysics. To measure the spectrum of a nonstationary seismic signal, different …

Assessing the effectiveness of elastic full-waveform-inversion (FWI) algorithms when applied
to shallow 2D structures in the presence of a complex topography is critically important. By …

Conventional reflectivity inversion methods are based on a stationary convolution model
and theoretically require stationary seismic traces as input (ie, those free of attenuation and …

Inelastic attenuation, quantified by Q, the seismic quality factor, has considerable impact on
surface seismic reflection data. A new method for interval Q-factor estimation using near …

We present seismic measurements of the firn column at Korff Ice Rise, West Antarctica,
including measurements of compressional-wave velocity and attenuation. We describe a …

Wave attenuation is an important physical property of hydrate‐bearing sediments that is
rarely taken into account in site characterization with seismic data. We present a field …

Absorption in subsurface media greatly reduces the resolution of seismic data. Absorption
not only dissipates the high-frequency components of the wave, but it also distorts the …
