Zero crossing

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-004196

The point on a seismic trace where the amplitude of the seismic wave passes through zero. These points indicate a change in the polarity of the seismic signal. Zero crossings are used in seismic interpretation to pick horizons and identify phase changes within the data.
