◎ The higher the frequency of the waveform, the greater or better will be the<br />

vertical resolution.<br />

Because velocity increases with depth and frequency decreases with depth resolution<br />

goes down. Typically tops and bottoms of beds resolved by TWT of λ/2. Once the<br />

bed is about λ/30 thick or less, reflections from the top and base effectively cancel<br />

and there is no detectable seismic response.<br />
