Towards understanding the impact of the evanescent elastodynamic mode coupling in Marchenko equation-based demultiple methods

Marchenko equation-based methods promise data-driven, true-amplitude internal multiple elimination. The method is exact in 1-D acoustic media, however it needs to be expanded to account for the presence of 2- and 3-D elastodynamic wave-field phenomena, such as compressional (P) to shear (S) mode conversions, total reflections or evanescent waves...
