static correction
Often called statics, a bulk shift of a
seismic trace in time during seismic
processing.
Snells Law
i1: angle of incidence
i2: angle of refraction
v1, v2: velocities
For v2>>v1, i1
Wave-equation datuming
A more advanced method
Advantage: using the wave equation
datuming is more accurate than the
vertical static shift datuming, especially for
areas where the velocity contrast between
the near surface and the substratum is not
large.
Wave-equation datuming
Ref: [Berryhill 1979]
It uses the Kirchhoff integral formulation of
the wave equation
It is also called downward and upward
continuation
Wave-equation datuming
A simplification used: only to consider the
upgoing traces by halving all the velocities
