Summary
The Rock Physics Handbook brings together much of the theory and data that form the foundation of rock physics with particular emphasis on the needs of interpreters of seismic data. In concise summaries, this book makes available a vast amount of laboratory and theoretical material in an accessible form. This collection is presented in such a way that it can immediately be applied to solve real problems. Geophysics researchers and students as well as petroleum engineers and environmental geoscientists will value The Rock Physics Handbook for practical problem solving.
