Brackenhoff, J.A. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author)In recent years, progress has been made in the field of virtual seismology. Using the novel data-driven Marchenko method, virtual sources and receivers can be created in the subsurface using only reflection data at the surface of the Earth and a background velocity model of the subsurface. Extensive studies have been performed on the application...abstract 2019

Brackenhoff, J.A. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author)In wave theory, a Green’s function is defined as the response of a medium to an impulsive point source. The homogeneous Green’s function is the combination of the Green’s function and its time-reversal. Homogeneous Green’s functions can be retrieved if the medium is enclosed by a boundary where the full wavefield is recorded. In recent years,...abstract 2017

Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Van der Neut, J.R. (author), Broggini, F. (author), Snieder, R. (author)It has recently been shown that the response to a virtual source in the subsurface can be derived from reflection data at the surface and an estimate of the direct arrivals between the virtual source and the surface. Hence, unlike for seismic interferometry, no receivers are needed inside the medium. This new method recovers the complete...conference paper 2012

Harmankaya, U. (author), Kaslilar, A. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Draganov, D.S. (author)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...conference paper 2013

(author)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...conference paper 2014

Broggini, F. (author), Snieder, R. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author)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...conference paper 2013

On the focusing conditions in time-reversed acoustics, seismic interferometry, and Marchenko imagingWapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Van der Neut, J.R. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Vasconcelos, I. (author), Van Manen, D.J. (author), Ravasi, M. (author)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...conference paper 2014

Van der Neut, J.R. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Vasconcelos, I. (author)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...conference paper 2014

Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Van der Neut, J.R. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author)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,...conference paper 2013

Van der Neut, J.R. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Vasconcelos, I. (author)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...conference paper 2014

Van der Neut, J.R. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Slob, E.C. (author)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...conference paper 2015

(author)In this study, non-physical (ghost) scattered surface waves are used to obtain the location of a near surface scatterer. The ghost is obtained from application of seismic interferometry to only one source at the surface. Different locations for virtual sources are chosen and ghost scattered surface waves for each of these virtual-source...conference paper 2012

Slob, E.C. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author)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...conference paper 2016

Staring, M. (author), Zhang, L. (author), Thorbecke, J.W. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author)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...conference paper 2020
