Abstract
Field recordings of a 2-D grid of surface shotlines by a single triaxial down hole geophone (single-level Walkaway Seismic Profile) showed guided arrivals scattered from faults. Downgoing P-wave energy scattered from breaks in a strong reflector became trapped in a low velocity layer immediately beneath the reflector.
