1.8. SUMMARY OF THE THESIS 11<br />

In Chapter 5, I explore the feasibility of an application of waveform inversion to the subbasalt<br />

imaging prob<strong>le</strong>m. A non-linearity study is carried out that aims to <strong>de</strong>fine the requirements<br />

of the starting mo<strong>de</strong>l that ensure the success of waveform inversion. This study is per<strong>forme</strong>d on<br />

a 1-D velocity mo<strong>de</strong>l and emphasises the importance of the <strong>de</strong>termination of the starting mo<strong>de</strong>l<br />

in the waveform inversion process. It is shown that the requirements on the starting mo<strong>de</strong>l<br />

<strong>de</strong>pends on the minimum frequency avai<strong>la</strong>b<strong>le</strong> in the data: the higher this frequency is, the more<br />

accurate the starting mo<strong>de</strong>l needs to be.
