Seismic Data Processing

Ozdogan Yilmaz

Description

This comprehensive textbook provides a rigorous and practical foundation in seismic data processing for exploration geophysicists and students. It covers the complete seismic processing workflow from data preprocessing and deconvolution to velocity analysis, stacking, and migration. Emphasis is placed on the theoretical basis of Fourier transforms, signal processing, and wave propagation, combined with real-world applications in 2-D and 3-D seismic exploration. The book bridges mathematical foundations with practical field techniques, equipping students with the analytical tools required to improve seismic imaging quality and interpret complex subsurface structures.
