Seismic Reflection Interpretation: 1-1 Introduction to Seismic Data

Step into the world of seismic reflection - the most powerful tool in modern subsurface imaging! This foundational lecture introduces the principles and applications of seismic reflection data, essential knowledge for anyone interested in exploring Earth's subsurface. Discover how geophysicists use sound waves to image geological structures thousands of feet below the surface. Perfect for geoscience students, early-career geologists, and anyone curious about how we 'see' beneath Earth's surface. This lecture is part of the University of Oklahoma's GPHY4874 Seismic Exploration course. No prior geophysics knowledge required - join us as we build the foundation for understanding seismic reflection interpretation!
