Reverse-time migration-based reflection tomography using teleseismic free surface multiples
Converted and multiply reflected phases from teleseismic events are routinely used to create structural images of the crust-mantle boundary (Moho) and the elasticity contrasts within the crust and upper mantle. The accuracy of these images is to a large extent determined by the background velocity model used to propagate these phases to depth. In order to improve estimates of 3-D velocity varia...
متن کاملTeleseismic Wave-equation Reflection Tomography Using Free Surface Reflected Phases
Abstract. Reverse-time migration (RTM) of teleseismic converted and free-surface reflected phases has been successful in helping to constrain the structure of the crust and upper mantle, but its accuracy is to a large extent determined by the background velocity model used in the underlying wave propagation. To this end, we develop a technique for RTM based wave-equation reflection tomography i...
متن کاملElastic reverse-time migration with OBS multiples
Receiver-side water-column multiples acquired with ocean-bottom seismic sensors can be used for elastic imaging of the subsurface, which can provide additional information relative to more conventional acoustic imaging. In this paper, we generalize the procedures for elastic migration using water-column multiples. We first separate receiver-side water-column multiples from primaries in recorded...
متن کاملemoving free-surface multiples from teleseismic transmission nd constructed reflection responses using reciprocity and the nverse scattering series
We develop a new way to remove free-surface multiples from teleseismic Ptransmission and constructed reflection responses. We consider two types of teleseismic waves with the presence of the free surface: One is the recorded waves under the real transmission geometry; the other is the constructed waves under a virtual reflection geometry. The theory presented is limited to 1D plane wave acousti...
متن کاملWavefield tomography using reverse time migration backscattering
Reverse time migration backscattering contains kinematic information that can be used to constrain velocity models. The backscattering results from the correlation between forward scattered and backscattered wavefields from sharp interfaces, i.e., sediment-salt interfaces. The synchronization between these wavefields depends on the velocity of the sediment section and the correct interpretation...
