The EDGER forum historically has focused on interpretation of multicomponent data, direct shear vs. P-SV data, effects of fluids on seismic response, direct inverstion of p-p and p-sv data, imaging with a focus on p-p and p-sv data, and reservoir monitoring with seismic observations. In the last five years, the research has centered on seismic characterization of unconventional reservoirs, emphasizing shales and fracture zones, inversion of 3D and 4D seismic data for rock properties, rock physics modeling of heterogeneous and anisotropic materials, computational methods for wave propagation in complex media, and advanced imaging techniques. Recently published papers and abstracts are on this page.
