Hardcover. Extracting information from seismic data requires knowledge of seismic wave propagation and reflection. The commonly used method involves solving linearly for a reflectivity at every point within the Earth, but this book follows an alternative approach which invokes inverse scattering theory. By developing the theory of seismic imaging from basic principles, the authors relate the different models of seismic propagation, reflection and imaging - thus providing links to reflectivity-based imaging on the one hand and to nonlinear seismic inversion on the other. The comprehensive and physically complete linear imaging foundation developed presents new results at the leading edge of seismic processing for target location and identification. This book serves as a fundamental guide to seismic imaging principles and algorithms and their foundation in inverse scattering theory, and is a valuable resource for working geoscientists, scientific programmers and theoretical physicists. This book follows an alternative approach to extracting information from seismic data by invoking inverse scattering theory. It relates the different models of seismic propagation, reflection, and imaging - providing links to reflectivity-based imaging and to nonlinear seismic inversion. It is a valuable resource for seismic processing practitioners and theoretical geophysicists. This item is printed on demand.

About the Author
Arthur B. Weglein holds the Hugh Roy and Lillie Cranz Cullen Distinguished University Professorship in Physics at the University of Houston, with a joint professorship in the Department of Physics and the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences. He is the founder and Director of the Mission-Oriented Seismic Research Program, which began in 2001 and is a consortium supported by the major oil and service companies in the world, as well as various US government programs. Before joining the University of Houston, he worked at Arco's Research Laboratory in Plano, Texas and at Schlumberger Cambridge Research Lab in the UK. Professor Weglein served as the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) Distinguished Lecturer in 2003 and was awarded the SEG's Reginald Fessenden Award in 2010. In 2008, he received the Distinguished Townsend Harris Medal from the City College of the City University of New York in recognition of his contributions to exploration seismology.
