Combining ground penetrating radar and seismic surveys in the assessment of cultural heritage buildings: The study of roofs, columns, and ground of the gothic church Santa Maria del Mar, in Barcelona (Spain) [PDF]
Combined non-destructive techniques are applied in the study of a historical building in Barcelona. Santa Maria del Mar is a magnificent Mediterranean gothic church built between 1329 and 1383.

EVALUATION OF THE SEISMIC TOMOGRAPHY TOOL FMTOMO FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING APPLICATIONS
Colombia has always been a well-known country in terms of natural resources. In particular, mineral resources have become more and more relevant, because of the interest in oil exploitation.

Validating tomographic model with broad-band waveform modelling: an example from the LA RISTRA transect in the southwestern United States [PDF]
Traveltime tomographic models of the LA RISTRA transect produce excellent waveform fits if we amplify the damped images. We observe systematic waveform distortions across the western edge of the Great Plains from South American events, starting about 300

Seismological expression of the iron spin crossover in ferropericlase in the Earth’s lower mantle
This study identifies the predicted seismic expression of the high-to-low iron spin crossover in the deep Earth mineral ferropericlase. A depth-dependent signal is detected in the fastest and slowest regions, related to lateral temperature variations, of

Juan de Fuca subduction zone from a mixture of tomography and waveform modeling [PDF]
Seismic tomography images of the upper mantle structures beneath the Pacific Northwestern United States display a maze of high-velocity anomalies, many of which produce distorted waveforms evident in the USArray observations indicative of the Juan de ...
