Abstract

The application of traveltime tomographic processing to a data set acquired in Antarctica's Ross Sea is demonstrated. The seismic data were shot by the OGS during its Antarctic summer mission of 1987-1988. It is shown that seismic reflection tomography can be an indispensable tool in processing seismic reflection data accurately. Reflection tomography yields better estimates of the velocity distribution between the reflection interfaces and allows one to evaluate the depths of the reflection points. An important property of the method is that it does not contain pre-stack migration inside the tomography itself. -from Authors
