Analytical wavefront curvature correction to plane-wave reflection coefficients for a weak-contrast interface

Most amplitude versus offset (AVO) analysis and inversion techniques are based on the Zoeppritz equations for plane-wave reflection coefficients or their approximations. Real seismic surveys use localized sources that produce spherical waves, rather than plane waves. In the far-field, the AVO respon...
