Abstract
Systems, methods, and mediums may implement obtaining baseline traces of a baseline seismic survey and monitor traces of a monitor seismic survey; employing a computer to align the monitor traces to corresponding baseline traces using an error function having a phase-based component, thereby obtaining an aligned monitor survey; generating with the computer a comparison of the aligned monitor survey to the baseline seismic survey; and using the comparison of the aligned monitor survey to the baseline seismic survey to determine a change in the subterranean hydrocarbon producing reservoir.
