Etymology
From mis- + stack.
noun
- An instance of misstacking.“Since the CO-DMO sees a larger dip than the dip in the source-receiver direction, it overcorrects and the subsequent NMO correction will still be dip-dependent; a time shift and a misstack will occur.”
verb
- To stack improperly.“Because the model assumed in the theory of PSPM has a constant velocity, PSPM causes coherent noise from shallow scatterers to misstack, rather than stack coherently.”
