In seismic interferometry the response to a virtual source is created from responses to sequential transient or simultaneous noise sources. Most methods use crosscorrelation, but recently seismic interferometry by multidimensional deconvolution (MDD) has been proposed as well. In the simultaneous-source method (also known as blended acquisition), overlapping responses to sources with small time...

Claerbout’s daylight imaging concept is generalized to the general theory of interferometric seismic imaging (II). Interferometric seismic imaging is defined to be any algorithm that inverts crosscorrelated seismic data for the reflectivity or source distribution. As examples, we show that II can be used to image reflectivity distributions by migrating ghost reflections in passive seismic data,...

We use data from a small aperture array in southern California to quantify variations in source parameter estimates at closely spaced stations (distances ranging from ∼7 to 350 m) to provide constraints on parameter uncertainties. Many studies do not consider uncertainties in these estimates even though they can be significant and have important implications for studies of earthquake source phy...

Acoustic emissions from a 2120 cubic in air-gun array were recorded through a towed hydrophone assembly during an oil industry 2-D seismic survey off the West Wales Coast of the British Isles. Recorded seismic pulses were sampled, calibrated, and analyzed post-survey to investigate power levels of the pulses in the band 200 Hz-22 kHz at 750-m, 1-km, 2.2-km, and 8-km range from source. At 750-m ...

In this paper, we present an algorithm for seismic source wavelet estimation that is based on seismic time frequency spectral decomposition with matching pursuit technique. The main assumption of this algorithm is that the source wavelet is stationary for single wavelet estimation in a selected time window and that the source wavelet has normalized energy to avoid scale ambiguity between reflec...
