ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This disclosure relates to improved methods and apparatus for vertically stacking seismic-trace data col- lected by a digital field recorder during seismic pro- specting utilizing plural initiations of a low energy sur- face seismic source. Seismic-trace data generated by consecutive seismic source initiations and acquired at a common detector location is weighted and summed together, and the sum is normalized prior to being recorded. Accordingly, the signal-to-noise ratio of the seismic- trace data is improved. The methods and apparatus by which the weighting values are calculated and applied pro- vides computational simplifications which reduce the pro- gram storage requirements and increase the computation speed of the microcomputer circuit preferably used to per- form the calculations and leads to savings in hardware power, size, and complexity.
