Detailed reconstruction of deep crustal targets by seismic methods remains a long-standing challenge. One key to address this challenge is the joint development of new seismic acquisition systems and leading-edge processing techniques. In marine environments, controlled-source seismic surveys at regional scale are typically carried out with sparse arrays of ocean bottom seismometers (OBSs), which provide incomplete and down-sampled subsurface illumination. To assess and minimize 5 the acquisition footprint in high-resolution imaging process such as full waveform inversion, realistic crustal-scale benchmark models are clearly required.The deficiency of such models prompts us to build one and release it freely to the geophysical community. Here we introduce GO_3D_OBS - a 3D high-resolution geomodel representing a subduction zone, inspired by the geology TI - GO_3D_OBS – The Nankai Trough-inspired benchmark geomodel for seismic imaging methods assessment and next generation 3D surveys design (version 1.0) DO - 10.5194/gmd-2020-240 DA - 2020-10-06 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/go-3d-obs-the-nankai-trough-inspired-benchmark-geomodel-for-seismic-5MmAzII2rw DP - DeepDyve ER -
