Norm Bleistein

Bleistein has made fundamental contributions to mathematical aspects of seismic inversion theory, particularly as it relates to amplitude preservation in prestack depth migration in acoustic and elastic media and, more recently, in dip-moveout (DMO) processing.

While at Landmark Graphics, Dave developed technology to mesh seismic images and used those meshes to facilitate computer vision and fluid flow simulation in the analysis of those images. He continues to work on the problem of how to best represent and manipulate subsurface models.

Larner provides the group his extensive experience with the practical issues of data acquisition and seismic data processing, contributing to the effort to develop improved methods for imaging and general processing of seismic data.

Paul's primary research interests are in seismic imaging and velocity estimation using full-wavefield techniques, computational methods for wave propagation, optimization and high-performance computing.

Snieder's research program focuses on wave propagation and inverse problems. Presently he has an active program on monitoring the subusrface with coda wave interferometry. This has been applied to rock physics, volcano monitoring, and stress-monitoring in mining. His research also includes natural hazards and remote sensing of fault zones with seismic waves.

Tsvankin has led breakthrough research in seismic modeling, inversion, and processing in anisotropic media with an emphasis on robust processing methods for inhomogeneous anisotropic models. His current interests also include seismic methods of fracture characterization and effective medium theory.
