Example or preview of final version

Here is an example of how your abstract will appear in the final abstract volume: https://www.pesgb.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Example-Abstract.pdf

Instructions for use of this document

As you will see from the example abstract linked to above, your title and authors will appear first and everything pasted into the “Abstract” field will appear under the title “Abstract” to separate it from the authors. Finally, text you insert in the Bio will appear at the bottom of your abstract.

When you copy/paste, formatting will be stripped, so you will need to reapply bold & italic. However, the font chosen below is Helvetica, which is the font that will appear in the abstract volume, so the changes you see should be minimised.

Abstract – will always appear at the beginning of your abstract. Please copy and paste everything below this using Ctrl C to copy & Ctrl V to paste

This is an example of an introduction. When published, this text will be Helvetica, size 11, left aligned and single spaced. You should separate paragraphs with a single line.

Like above. This is an example of a second paragraph for the introduction. Please do not include Titles, authors and companies in the abstract. You will be asked to supply this information when you submit your abstract and it will be automatically generated.

Subheading – should you need one. Please ensure you apply bold formatting when you copy and paste.

This is an example of body text for the first section. This section should also include all figures, charts, graphics and equations that you will reference. You may insert those images here and when you copy/paste into the abstract field, it will copy them over in the same location. You do not need to supply images separately.

Fig 1. An example of an image and the text that is included below it. You should number these figures sequentially according to their appearance in the abstract or section. You should also check that each figure is referred to in the text. Text in captions will be Helvetica, size 11 and italic formatting should be applied when you copy/paste.

Table 1. An example of a table and the text that is included below it. You should number these tables sequentially according to their appearance in the abstract or section. As with the image, check that each the table is referred to in the text. Text in captions will be Helvetica, size 11, centered under the image and single spaced. You will need to apply italic after copy/pasting.

Second Subheading– another ex. of a subheading.

Here is an example of a second section with a second subheading. This text is the first paragraph of the second section.

Conclusions

You are not required to submit conclusions, but if you choose to, then they should appear as a subheading followed by body text.

References

References should appear at the end of your abstract in Helvetica, size 11. Please apply italic formatting after pasting. Please ensure every citation is referenced. As an example, we give:

Acknowledgements

Your abstract should be at least 500 words and is expected to be 1000-2000 words. The final deadline for submission of your abstract is Friday 25 May 2018. Please note you WILL be able to amend the abstract after this submission deadline.

avefield signal apparition: A seismic shift for simultaneous source separation

Abstract

A new method for discrete sampling of signals with applications to separation of interfering wavefields is presented. By utilizing a periodic sequence of source signatures along one source line, the wavefield becomes separately visible in different parts of the spectral domain where it can be isolated from interfering signals, processed, and subtracted from the original recordings, thereby separating the wavefields from each other. The concept is referred to as signal apparition which we suggest refers to “the act of becoming visible”. We anticipate a broad range of applications of the new sampling approach including simultaneous source separation, seismic interference cancellation, residual shot noise attenuation, modeling of wavefields and source-side deghosting. We illustrate seismic apparition on a finite-difference modelled simultaneo
