  • Quantitative Seismic Interpretation

    Applying Rock Physics Tools to Reduce Interpretation Risk

    by Per Avseth, Tapan Mukerji, Gary Mavko ...
    Quantitative Seismic Interpretation demonstrates how rock physics can be applied to predict reservoir parameters, such as lithologies and pore fluids, from seismically derived attributes. The authors provide an integrated methodology and practical tools for quantitative interpretation, uncertainty assessment, and characterization of subsurface reservoirs using well-log and seismic data. They ... Read more

  • Earthquake Prediction

    Dawn of the New Seismology

    by David Nabhan ...
    Each year the world faces thousands of earthquakes of magnitude 5.0 or greater, resulting in devastating property destruction and tragic loss of life. To help avert these catastrophes, scientists have long searched for ways to predict when and where earthquakes will happen. The earth science establishment in the US says that earthquake prediction still lies outside the realm of possibility. But ... Read more

  • The Tide-Dominated Han River Delta, Korea

    Geomorphology, Sedimentology, and Stratigraphic Architecture

    by Don Cummings, Robert Dalrymple, Kyungsik Choi, Jaehwa Jin ...
    The Tide-Dominated Han River Delta provides a thorough analysis of a river delta in which tidal currents have reworked the river-borne sediment, generating characteristic geomorphological and sedimentological signatures in the process. Such "tide-dominated" deltas are common in the modern ocean, forming the substrate upon which entire populations are built. Furthermore, ancient examples contain ... Read more

  • Seismic Wave Propagation and Scattering in the Heterogeneous Earth : Second Edition

    by Haruo Sato, Michael C. Fehler, Takuto Maeda ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Seismic waves - generated both by natural earthquakes and by man-made sources - have produced an enormous amount of information about the Earth's interior. In classical seismology, the Earth is modeled as a sequence of uniform horizontal layers (or spherical shells) having different elastic properties and one determines these properties from travel times and dispersion of seismic waves. The Earth, ... Read more

  • Extraterrestrial Seismology

    Edited by Vincent C. H. Tong, Rafael A. García ...
    Seismology is a highly effective tool for investigating the internal structure of the Earth. Similar techniques have also successfully been used to study other planetary bodies (planetary seismology), the Sun (helioseismology), and other stars (asteroseismology). Despite obvious differences between stars and planetary bodies, these disciplines share many similarities and together form a coherent ... Read more
