Innovation, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills are as important to the arts as they are to the Earth sciences. That’s why Earth Science Week 2018 is celebrating the theme of “Earth as Inspiration,” promoting public understanding of the geosciences and emphasizing artistic expression as a powerful way of strengthening Earth science education in the 21st century.

Exploration and development drilling along the upper region of the Middle Pennsylvanian Red Fork Sandstone has been going on since 1979 in the western part of the Anadarko basin of Oklahoma. Fangyu Li, a postdoctoral research associate in the College of Engineering at the University of Georgia, said the latest technology in multispectral coherence is developing to a point where scientists can see more of what’s down there and they can see it more clearly.

Coherence is an iconic attribute that finds its place in most workstation interpretation software packages. Much has been written about this attribute and the usefulness of its applications. The geologic feature imaging in three-dimensional seismic data volumes is done well by the coherence attribute as three-dimensionality is an essential ingredient of its computation.
