Modeling ocean-bottom seismic rotation rates |
Ohad Barak and Shuki Ronen
To evaluate the added information that would come from rotation sensors we used elastic modeling. In our synthetic data experiment, we predicted the effect of a seabed scatterer on fully multi-component data. We used a pressure source that generates P waves. The P-waves are converted to S-waves and to surface waves propagating on the seabed. Our evaluation is that the added information from rotation sensors will be useful for identifying and separating surface waves from body waves.
