Abstract

The present disclosure is related to a velocity model update with a full waveform inversion gradient. At least one method can include updating a velocity model of a subsurface, which can include suppressing high wavenumber components of the velocity model provided by reflected energy with a decomposed full waveform inversion gradient. Low wavenumber components can be preserved in the velocity model.
