Problems in Exploration Seismology and Their Solutions

by Lloyd P. Geldart, Robert E. Sheriff

This book is designed for students and for geophysicists who have forgotten the basic theory required to solve practical problems. Geophysical texts often provide problems, but this book is unique in that it provides solutions also. The authors give a summary of the basic theory required to solve each problem. The 212 problems cover a wide range, including least-squares methods, choosing velocities for various situations, z-transforms, determining 2D and 3D field geometries, and solving processing and interpretation problems.
