Especially in time-lapse full-waveform inversion, reducing non-repeatability between baseline and monitoring surveys is essential. In this paper, we compare the impact of different degrees and types of wavelet non-repeatability on three basic time-lapse inversion strategies, including the parallel strategy (PRS), the sequential strategy (SQS), and the double-difference strategy (DDS).
