    Abstract: A method is described for automatically detecting shear-wave (S-wave) microseismic reflections using distributed acoustic sensing (DAS). The method includes obtaining raw DAS data; performing passive seismic event detection and phase picking; extracting a passive seismic event based on the passive seismic event phase picks to generate a seismic S-wave event gather; reducing noise in the raw DAS data; using the passive seismic S-wave event gather and the passive seismic event phases to identify an apex of a passive seismic S-wave event in the denoised DAS dataset and dividing it into two portions based on the apex; dip filtering the two portions to remove the direct arrival of the passive seismic S-wave events to generate a dip-filtered gather; and generating an S-wave microseismic reflection gather based on the dip-filtered gather.
