  1. First Arrival Traveltime and Waveform Inversion of Refraction Data Jianming Sheng and Gerard T. Schuster University of Utah October, 2002

  2. Outline • Motivation • First arrival traveltime and waveform inversion • Numerical examples • Summary

  3. Motivation Given: Traveltime and waveform of CDP refraction data Goal: High resolution tomogram Problem: Can waveform tomography provide better resolution than ray-based tomography?

  4. Ray-based Tomography vs. Full Waveform Inversion Efficient and robust Ray-based tomography Resolution limited by high-freq. assumption No high-freq. limitation Full waveform tomography Slow convergence and local minima problem

  5. First-arrival Traveltime and Waveform Inversion Efficient and robust Ray-based traveltime tomography Initial model No high-freq. limitation First-arrival waveform inversion Better convergence and mild nonlinear

  6. Outline • Motivation • First arrival traveltime and waveform inversion • Numerical examples • Summary

  7. First Arrival Traveltime and Waveform Inversion • Step 1: Preprocessing the raw data: band-pass, 3D to 2D transform, trace normalization • Step 2: Picking first-arrival traveltimes and muting out other waves except first arrivals

  8. First arrival traveltime tomography • Step 3: Minimizes traveltime residual Initial model

  9. Observed Predicted Misfit function • Step 4: First arrival waveform inversion

  10. Multigrid Tomography Dynamic smoothing scheme • Traveltime tomography: (to attack local minima problem) (Nemeth, T., Normark, E. and Qin, F., 1992)
