Seismic amplitude variation with offset data contain information on the elastic parameters of geological layers. As general solution inverse problem consists a probability over space all possible earth models, we look at probabilities obtained using (AVO) for different choices parameters. A proper analysis in requires nontrivial definition defining state total ignorance (seismic velocities, Lamé’s parameters, etc.). We conclude that mass density, seismic impedance, and Poisson’s ratio...
