Abstract


Estimation of the low frequency part of the acoustic impedance is an essential yet challenging tasks for quantitative interpretation from seismic data which is essentially band-limited in nature. Ghosh and Mandal (2016) had devised an effective solution using first principles only and demonstrated its efficacy through synthetic examples. Now in the present paper, we illustrate the method
