    • Joint microseismic event location with uncertain velocity 

      Poliannikov, Oleg V.; Prange, Michael; Malcolm, Alison E.; Djikpesse, Hugues (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
      We study the problem of the joint location of seismic events using an array of receivers. We show that locating multiple seismic events simultaneously is advantageous compared to the more traditional approaches of locating ...

    • Using SVD for improved interferometric Green's function retrieval 

      Melo, Gabriela; Malcolm, Alison E.; Mikesell, Dylan; van Wijk, Kasper (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
      Seismic interferometry (SI) is a technique used to estimate the Green’s function (GF) between two receiver locations, as if there were a source at one of the receiver locations. However, in many applications, the requirements ...

    • Analysis of location uncertainty for a microearthquake cluster: A case study 

      Melo, Gabriela; Malcolm, Alison E.; Poliannikov, Oleg V.; Fehler, Michael (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
      In many reservoirs, an increase in permeability and conductivity is achieved by hydraulic fracturing/stimulations which open cracks and fractures that then act as pathways for fluids to navigate in the subsurface. Mapping, ...
