Close-up and seismic-derived instantaneous attributes of portion of the seismic reflection profile TIR10/09, showing structural details of the Capo Peloro anticline.
a, time migration. b, reflection strength. The instantaneous amplitude measures the reflectivity strength which is proportional to the square root of the total energy of the seismic signal at an instant of time. Note the lack of reflection energy just beneath the ~7 m seafloor step located on the summit of the Capo Peloro anticline. c, instantaneous phase. This seismic attribute emphasizes the continuity of events on a seismic section. Reflection strength, instantaneous phase and seismic section panels show clearly a small thrust cutting the summit of the anticline and offsetting the seafloor, confirming the recent activity of the structure.
