We have developed a theory of viscoelastic reverse time migration (RTM). The main feature
of viscoelastic RTM is a compensation for P-and S-wave attenuation effects in seismic …

Without considering intrinsic attenuation, reverse time migration (RTM) in lossy media may
produce unfocused migration images, because of the amplitude loss and velocity dispersion …

The earth Q filtering causes poor illumination of the subsurface. Compensating for the
attenuated amplitude and distorted phase is crucial during elastic reverse time migration …

Attenuation in seismic wave propagation is a common cause for poor illumination of
subsurface structures. Attempts to compensate for amplitude loss in seismic images by …

Attenuation compensation in reverse‐time migration has been shown to improve the
resolution of the seismic image. In this paper, three essential aspects of implementing …

Intrinsic attenuation gives rise to phase dispersion and amplitude loss during seismic wave
propagation. Not correcting these effects in seismic imaging can result in inaccurate reflector …

The quality of seismic images obtained by reverse time migration (RTM) strongly depends
on the imaging condition. We propose a new imaging condition that is motivated by …

Seismic wave suffers from amplitude attenuation and phase distortion when propagating in
the attenuating media, thus reverse time migration (RTM) for viscous media should take the …

Without considering intrinsic attenuation, reverse time migration (RTM) of data from lossy
media produces smeared migration images because of the Q effects (amplitude loss and …
