    This document provides instructions for an assignment to perform NMO correction and stacking on seismic data. The objectives are to NMO-correct and stack the traces in each common depth point gather to produce a stacked section. This stacked section provides an image of the subsurface in zero-offset time that can be used for later processing and interpretation. Students are asked to generate specific figures before and after NMO correction, stack the data using the correct NMO velocities, and answer questions about the smute parameter and how they determined the correct NMO velocities.

    GEOP 320 Spring 2012 Lab assignment # 4 NMO correction and stacking
    (Due date: 30/4/2012) Objective The objectives of this lab assignment are to NMO-correct and stack the data. Introduction In this exercise, we will NMO-correct the data and stack the traces in every CDP to produce the stacked section. The stacked section gives an image of the subsurface in T 0CDP domain. It is used for later processing and interpretation. Exercises Observing the specific parameters of your data set: 1. Follow the steps in tutorial 3.5 of the Manual. 1. Generate Figure 10 of Manual using CDPs in the center of your dataset before and after NMO correction. 2. Generate Figure 11 for your dataset. 3. Answer the following questions: a. Provide the meaning, value, unit, and justification of the smute parameter. b. On what basis do you decide that you have the correct NMO velocities?
