Elastic Wave Field Stratigraphy:A New Seismic Imaging Technology

The objective of this project is to demonstrate the value of elastic-wavefield seismic stratigraphy, a new seismic interpretation science based on the principles that: ? All modes of an elastic wavefield have equal value for studying subsurface geology. ? One wave mode of a multicomponent (i.e., elastic) seismic wavefield often reveals depositional sequences and depositional facies across a stratigraphic interval that cannot be detected with the other modes of that wavefield.
