Seismic Data Processing and Imaging

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce a Special Issue of Applied Sciences dedicated to the cutting-edge field of Seismic Data Processing and Imaging. Seismic exploration has long been a cornerstone of subsurface characterization, playing a pivotal role in energy exploration, seismological/geological research, and environmental monitoring. As technology continues to advance, this Special Issue aims to showcase the latest advancements, challenges, and breakthroughs in the processing and imaging of seismic data.

Seismic data processing and imaging are vital components in transforming raw seismic measurements into accurate and interpretable subsurface images. The contributions to this Special Issue will address a wide spectrum of topics, including, but not limited to, seismic data acquisition, noise reduction and denoising techniques, migration algorithms, full waveform inversion, anisotropic media imaging, machine learning applications in seismic imaging, and the integration of various data sources for more accurate subsurface characterization.

We invite researchers, scholars, and experts to contribute their original research, case studies, and reviews to provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in seismic data processing and imaging. This Special Issue will serve as a platform via which to share their insights, methodologies, and experiences, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange within the seismic exploration community.

Prof. Dr. Yoshiyuki Kaneda
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
