The approximate computation of the acoustic impedance from seismic data is usually based on the recursive formula h 1 + Ck ktl = ‘k Gtegrated seismic pulse multiplied with twice the impedance in the top layer. For impedance values less than 0.2 in absolute value this is also equal to the acoustic impedance function (minus the acoustic impedance in the top layer) convolved with the seismic pulse. where h, is the acoustic impedance in layer number k and ck is the pressure reflection coefficient for the interface between layer k and k + 1. The above formula is derived from a discrete layered earth model. When we consider a continuous earth model and discretize the results, we obtain the recursive formula The computation of the acoustic impedance from band-limited seismic data corresponds to an exponential transformation of the integrated seismic trace. On a band-limited acoustic impedance section with well-separated reflectors and low noise level the direction of change in the acoustic impedance can be correctly identified.
