Abstract
A method of at least partially deghosting recorded seismic s-waves, wherein recorded seismic data is provided, wherein the recorded seismic data has been recorded at a receiver located beneath the Earth's surface, and wherein the recorded seismic data includes s-wave data. The method may include the steps of finding a model of the Earth's crust for use in deghosting the recorded seismic data using the s-wave data, wherein the model includes at least one region and wherein the model includes the Earth's surface and the location of the receiver, using the model to find a deghosting operator that, when applied to the s-wave data, at least partially deghosts the s-wave data, and applying the deghosting operator to the s-wave data to at least partially deghost the s-wave data.
