Mathematics of Multidimensional Seismic Imaging, Migration, and Inversion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781461265146)

In the past 40 years geophysicists have discovered that they can construct images and even determine important physical characteristics of rocks that can yield information about oil and gas bearing structures in the earth. Doing this requires the application of advanced understanding of the mathematical physics of wave propagation. This collection of the necessary seismic data processing methods has been dubbed seismic "migration". This text ist the first to treat the many kinds of "migration" in a unified mathematical way. It serves as a bridge between the applied math and geophysics communities.
