  "STFINV -- create and apply a source wavelet correction filter\n"
  "=============================================================\n"
  "\n"
  "Different methods are provided for the derivation of source wavelet correction\n"
  "filters in approaches to full waveform inversion. Given a set of recorded data\n"
  "and a set of synthetic data (typically, but not necessarilly the expected\n"
  "impulse response of the subsurface) a source wavelet correction filter is\n"
  "obtained by application of a user-selectable optimization citerion. The\n"
  "synthetic waveforms are convolved with this filter wavelet and the convolved\n"
  "synthetics as well as the wavelet itself are returned to the user.\n"
  "\n"
  "The effective time history of the seismic source used in field recordings is\n"
  "not well known in most cases. This applies in particular to transient sources\n"
  "(like explosives or hammer blows). The so-called 'source-time-function' might\n"
  "even vary from shot to shot. For this reason it is not possible to use an\n"
  "appropriate source-time-function in the initial simulation of synthetic data\n"
  "in an approach of full-waveform inversion. However, after synthetic data have\n"
  "been calculated using a generic source-time-function, a correction filter can\n"
  "be constructed such that an improved source-time-function will reduce the\n"
  "misfit to the recorded data.\n"
