Application of multi-component seismic wavefield separation techniques
in both the exploration and reservoir geophysics environments. Parametric
wavefield separation algorithms are currently under investigation, with
application to synthetic, VSP, land 2D, and marine OBC data.
Investigation of prestack multiple attenuation based on generalised
linear inversion using scattering matrix, reflectivity, and wave-equation
theory.
Investigation of the propagation of seismic waves in basalt-covered
regions using reflectivity and finite-difference foward modelling techniques.
Demonstration of seismic processing techniques to ground penetrating
radar data from the Burdekin River, North Queensland. The subsequent
geological interpretation to be compared to previous work in the same area.
Investigation of spatial and lateral resolution of coal seismic
using numerical modelling techniques.
Investigation of the effect of non-random reflectivity behaviour
on standard predictive deconvolution algorithms, and the application of
specially formulated deconvolution methods to non-random reflectivity
sequences.
Application of the magnetic and resistivity methods in
characterising landfill sites in and around Brisbane.
All project theses are available from
the
Dorothy Hill Physical Sciences and Engineering Library
at the St Lucia Campus of the University of Queensland.
