GEOS6394 - Time-lapse Seismology

GEOS 6394 Time-lapse Seismology (3 semester credit hours) Theory and application for methods of time-lapse monitoring of subsurface changes using seismic waves. Topics include time-lapse rock and fluid physics properties, fluid flow, pressure, temperature and stress changes. Applications include reservoir monitoring, hydrocarbons, groundwater, CO2 injection, earthquakes, ambient seismic noise, and the near-surface environment. Prerequisite: GEOS 6392 or instructor consent required. (3-0) R
