{
  "id": "MLC-T-OAG-000111",
  "term": "Amplitude variation with offset",
  "field": "Oil and gas",
  "definition": "The change in the amplitude of a seismic reflection as a function of the distance between the seismic source and receiver. This phenomenon is sensitive to the elastic properties of the rock layers, particularly the P-wave and S-wave velocities and density. AVO analysis is used to detect and characterize hydrocarbon reservoirs.",
