Wide-angle Refraction

Wide-Angle Refraction is a seismic refraction method that utilizes refracted waves arriving at large offsets, where the angle of incidence approaches or exceeds the critical angle, to infer subsurface velocity structure with enhanced resolution at greater depths compared to conventional near-source refraction techniques.
