Seismic images provided by reverse time migration can be contaminated by artefacts associated with the migration of multiples.<br/><br/>Multiples can corrupt seismic images, producing both false positives, i.e. by focusing energy at unphysical interfaces, and false negatives, i.e. by destructively interfering with primaries. Multiple-related...

Since the introduction of the Marchenko method in geophysics, many variants have been developed. Using a compact unified notation, we review redatuming by multidimensional deconvolution and by double focusing, virtual seismology, double dereverberation and transmission-compensated Marchenko multiple elimination, and discuss the underlying...

We have seen many developments in Marchenko equation-based methods for internal multiple attenuation in the past years. Starting from a wave-equation based method that required a smooth velocity model, there are now Marchenko equation-based methods that do not require any model information or user-input. In principle, these methods accurately...

Time-reversal acoustics, seismic interferometry, back propagation, source-receiver redatuming and imaging by double focusing are all based in some way or another on Green's theorem. An implicit assumption for all these methods is that data are available on a closed boundary, a condition that is never met in geophysical practice. As a...

Forecasting induced seismicity responses for field data is difficult if no detailed model of the subsurface is available, which generally is the case. As an alternative, reflection data of the subsurface and a non-detailed background model can be used in the Marchenko method to obtain virtual receivers in the subsurface. By employing homogeneous...

Recent developments in exploration seismology have enabled the creation of virtual sources and/or virtual receivers in the subsurface from reflection measurements at the earth's surface. Unlike in seismic interferometry, no physical instrument (receiver or source) is needed at the position of the virtual source or receiver. Moreover, no detailed...

The Marchenko method can be used to retrieve Green’s functions (including multiple scattering) between virtual sources in the subsurface and physical receivers at the surface or virtual receivers in the subsurface. Here we discuss a variant of the Marchenko method which retrieves the response between physical sources and virtual receivers in the...

Marchenko imaging is a novel imaging technique that is capable to retrieve images from single-sided reflection measurements free of artefacts related to internal multiples (e.g. Behura et al., 2014; Broggini et al., 2012). An essential ingredient of Marchenko imaging is the so-called focusing function which can<br/>be retrieved from reflection...

The homogeneous Green’s function (i.e., the Green’s function and its time-reversed counterpart) plays an important role in optical, acoustic and seismic holography, in inverse scattering methods, in the field of time-reversal acoustics, in reversetime migration and in seismic interferometry. Starting with the classical closed-boundary...

We present a scheme for Marchenko imaging in a dissipative heterogeneous medium. The scheme requires measured reflection and transmission data at two sides of the dissipative medium. The effectual medium is the same as the dissipative medium, but with negative dissipation. We show how the measured double-sided data can be combined to obtain the...

Focusing functions are defined as wavefields that focus at a specified location in a heterogeneous subsurface. These functions can be directly related to Green's functions and hence they can be used for seismic imaging of complete wavefields, including not only primary reflections but all orders of internal multiples. Recently, it has been shown...

Despite the close links between the fields of time-reversed acoustics, seismic interferometry and Marchenko imaging, a number of subtle differences exist. This paper reviews the various focusing conditions of these methods, the causality/acausality aspects of the corresponding focusing wavefields, and the requirements with respect to...

Recently, a novel iterative scheme was proposed to retrieve Green's functions in an unknown medium from its single-sided reflection response and an estimate of the propagation velocity. In Marchenko imaging, these Green's functions are used for seismic imaging with complete wavefields, including internal multiple reflections. In this way, common...

Marchenko imaging is a new way to deal with internal multiple scattering in migration. It has been designed for layered media with smooth interfaces. Here we analyze the performance of the Marchenko scheme for a medium with many point scatterers. Although the conditions for Marchenko imaging are violated, we observe from a numerical experiment...

Complex overburdens can severely distort transmitted wavefields, posing serious challenges for seismic imaging. In Marchenko redatuming, we use an iterative scheme to estimate so-called focusing functions, which can be used to redatum seismic wavefields to a specified level below the major complexities in the subsurface. Unlike in conventional...

Recent research showed that the Marchenko equation can be used to construct the Green’s function for a virtual source position in the subsurface. The method requires the reflection response at the surface and an estimate of the direct arrival of the wavefield, traveling from the virtual source location to the acquisition surface. In this paper,...

The investigation and detection of near-surface structures (such as cavities, caves, sinkholes, tunnels, mineshafts, buried objects, archeological ruins, water reservoir, etc.) is important to mitigate geo- and environmental hazards. In a former study, we suggested a method based on active-source seismic interferometry for locating the...

Seismic interferometry is a technique that allows one to reconstruct the full wavefield originating from a virtual source inside a medium, assuming a receiver is present at the virtual source location. We discuss a method that creates a virtual source inside a medium from reflection data measured at the surface, without needing a receiver inside...

Recently we introduced a new approach for retrieving the Green's response to a virtual source in the subsurface from reflection data at the surface. Unlike in seismic interferometry, no receiver is needed at the position of the virtual source. Here we present the theory behind this new method. First we introduce the Green's function G and a so...
