Bulletin description:| Principles of imaging complex structures in the Earth subsurface
by use of 3-D reflection seismology. The emphasis is on processing
methodologies and algorithms, with examples of applications to field data.
Topics include: acquisition geometries of land and marine 3-D seismic
surveys, time vs. depth imaging, prestack Kirchhoff migration, dip moveout,
zero-offset and prestack downward continuation, full separation and
splitting, migration velocity analysis, velocity model building,
imaging irregularly sampled and aliased data. Computational labs
involve some programming.

| Homework assignments | You will be given a minimum of 6 hands-on homework assignments throughout the quarter. Although you are not expected to be an expert programmer, most of the labs require modification of Fortran90 code. If you run into trouble, refer to this list of Fortran90 tutorial, or ask the TA. |
