In seismic waveform inversion, the reconstruction of the subsurface properties is usually carried out using approximative wave propagation models to ensure computational efficiency. The viscoelastic nature of the subsurface is often unaccounted for, and two popular approximations—the acoustic and linearized Born inversion—are widely used. This leads to reconstruction errors since the approximations ignore realistic (physical) aspects of seismic wave propagation in the heterogeneous Earth. In this study, we show that the Bayesian approximation error approach can be used to partially recover from errors, addressing elastic and viscous effects in acoustic Born inversion for viscoelastic media. The results of numerical examples indicate that neglecting the modeling errors induced by the approximations results in very poor recovery of the subsurface velocity fields.
