Abstract

Summary

The near surface can strongly distort the effective source and receiver wavelet. This distortion not only harms quantitative inversion but can also be a cause of strong shot generated noise. The common process of SC-Decon is often unable to correct much of this distortion. We show that an enhanced SC-Decon process can correct this distortion and significantly improve land seismic data. Modern dense data aids the enhanced SC-Decon process.
