Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on seismic data analysis and interpretation for subsurface characterization. It covers methods for fault detection, reservoir modeling, and lithology identification, often employing advanced techniques like machine learning and full-waveform inversion. The scope includes the analysis of seismic attributes, amplitude variations with offset (AVO), and seismic-to-well calibration for hydrocarbon exploration and development. Studies also address induced seismicity and the impact of geological structures on seismic data.
