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.
