xix, 355 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm For a thorough comprehension of the field of geophysics, we need to understand its origins. Basic Geophysics by Enders Robinson and Dean Clark takes us on a journey that demonstrates how the achievements of our predecessors have paved the way for our modern science. From the ancient Greeks through the Enlightenment to the greats of the contemporary age, the reasoning behind basic principles is explored and clarified. With that foundation, several advanced topics are examined, including: the 3D wave equation; ray tracing and seismic modeling; reflection, refraction, and diffraction; and WKBJ migration. The successful integration of the historical narrative alongside practical analysis of relevant principles makes this book an excellent resource for both novices and professionals, and all readers will gain insight and appreciation for the seismic theory that underlies modern exploration seismology Geophysics Diffraction Wave Equation migration Acoustic Dispersion Divergence Elastic P-wave Reflection Refraction Shear wave (S-wave) Time migration Velocity analysis Wave propagation 550 9781560803454 e-Library Universitas Pertamina Be Global Leader 550 ROB b 9719/PUP/2020 Perpustakaan Universitas Pertamina 550 ROB b c.1 Basic_geophysics.jpg 5208 2023-03-20 12:07:10 2023-03-20 12:07:10 machine generated
