A special issue on Geoscience The State-of-Art Methods and Case Studies in Exploration Seismology
Exploration seismology is a powerful tool for near-surface detection, oil/gas and mineral exploration, geothermal study, and geological disaster early warning. It can provide both high-resolution structural and lithological information after careful and systematic data acquisition, processing, and interpretation. With the rapid development of high-performance computing and the increasing challenges of deep and ultradeep resource exploration and near-surface environmental monitoring, the theory and methods of exploration seismology have made great progress in the past three decades. This Special Issue invites contributions from a broad range of theoretical innovations, optimized methodology, and case studies in exploration seismology. The main contents include the following aspects:
(1) Advanced signal denoising and interpolation methods for seismic data;
(2) Accurate wave propagation modeling in acoustic, (an)elastic and anisotropic media;
(3) Advanced ray-based and wave equation seismic migration methods;
(4) High-resolution least-squares seismic imaging;
(5) Robust model building techniques using traveltime tomography and full-waveform inversion;
(6) The applications of artificial intelligent methods in seismic data processing and interpretation;
(7) The applications of high-performance computing in exploration seismology;
(8) Typical case studies of exploration seismology in near-surface survey and resource exploration.
Submissions can include original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and case studies relating to the title/description above. Each submission will undergo a formal peer review process, and acceptance or rejection of the submitted article will be evaluated upon reception of the reviews.
