Seismic Exploration on CD-ROM

Seismic Exploration on CD-ROM

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This CD-ROM provides full electronic text from fifteen most frequently used volumes selected from two book series: Handbook of Geophysical Exploration and Advances in Exploration Geophysics. The electronic text allows sophisticated searching and browsing facilities. 3500 relevant abstracts are incorporated providing the exploration geophysicist with a formidable reference library on single disc.

The expansion of concepts and technologies in exploration seismics over the years has been documented in detail by a wealth of articles in journals and reports. However, a researcher or specialist developing new techniques, or applying new techniques, relies on handbooks providing overviews and the status of specialised fields. Reference books provide the prime in-depth coverage for the exploration geophysicist - whether the demand is for details of complicated algorithms, the authoritative definition of a term, or the proper source of a quotation.

As our knowledge of the sub-disciplines within exploration seismics grows, so too does the need for concise and accessible information. Seismic Exploration on CD-ROM is intended to meet this demand.

Seismic Exploration on CD-ROM does more than compress the information on a disc. It makes use of a highly versatile and easy-to-use software interface which allows full text searching within and across volumes, series and abstracts - all facilitated by a global index. The modern exploration geophysicist's reference library on a CD-ROM.
