    Research Interests

    My current research aims at finding an efficient and cost effective way to migrate Multicomponent VSP data . At this point ,I think it's important to first understand what "multicomponent " means in the context of exploration seismology. Multicomponent seismology requires recording of seismic data with three- and sometimes four-component receivers. The three components measure displacement of the ground, usually in two horizontal and one vertical directions. Measuring three components of ground displacement enables the recording of compressional (P) and shear (S) waves which represent the full complement of "body" waves in seismology. Earthquake seismologists have been using the full complement for years to interpret the structure of our living plane, however, exploration seismologists have been slow to bring multicomponent seismology to the forefront of their measurement system.
