Biographical Information |
I began my geophysical career teaching geophysics and contributing to an industry supported consortium on migration, inversion and scattering (project MIDAS) at Columbia University's Henry Krumb School of Mines in New York City. In 1981, I joined Amoco's Tulsa Research Center and spent the next 18 years doing or leading research efforts in modeling, migration, signal analysis, basin analysis, seismic attribute analysis, reflection tomography, seismic inversion and multicomponent data analysis. In 1999, I joined the University of Houston as a Professor in the Department of Geosciences and as Director of the Allied Geophysics Laboratories. I am currently a member of the Geophysical Societies of Tulsa and Houston, SEG, EAGE, AAPG, AGU and SIAM, and serve as an Assistant Editor for Geophysics. My current research activity includes prestack imaging, velocity analysis and inversion of converted waves, computer-assisted pattern recognition of geologic features on 3-D seismic data, and interpreter-driven seismic processing.
