Inversion seismic?

[grandunivers]

hi, im confused about seismic inversions? in which case we use it? and why they are called inversion? someone reply me , thanks a lottt

Dear Friend,

The seismic traces we see on the monitor is basically the cupling response of the earth (rock layers) with the artificial vibration we generate using dynamite or vibroseis. in seismic inversion we first try to estimate the property of the artifical vibration and then remove it from the seismic trace. thus the values remains is simply the earth reflecticity (earth response). for further guidence please read seismic data analysis by oz yilmaz.

Hi, I would appreciate very much if anybody could help me to get the following Geophysical related books:

- 3D seismic imaging Biondi, Biondo 2006
- Seismic reservoir characterization : an earth modelling perspective Doyen, P. M. 2007
- Static corrections for seismic reflection surveys Cox, Mike (Michael J. G.) 1999
- Time Series Analysis and Inverse Theory. David Gubbins. Cambridge University Press, 2004.
- Applied seismology : a comprehensive guide to seismic theory and application Gadallah, Mamdouh R. 2005
- Seismic data processing : theory and practice Hatton, L. 1986
- Seismic multiple removal techniques : past, present and future Verschuur, D. J. 2006

Thank you very much in advance.
