Feasibility study of full waveform inversion of Love-SH waves for detecting small-scale shallow anomalies

open access: yesAIP Advances
In engineering surveys, conventional SH-wave seismic exploration methods exhibit limited resolution for detecting small-scale shallow anomalies, often failing to meet practical requirements.

Fully probabilistic seismic source inversion – Part 2: Modelling errors and station covariances [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2016
Seismic source inversion, a central task in seismology, is concerned with the estimation of earthquake source parameters and their uncertainties. Estimating uncertainties is particularly challenging because source inversion is a non-linear problem.

Structural Heterogeneity Shapes Segmentation of Megathrust Earthquakes and Volcanism in Central America

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract The mechanisms underlying the patchy distribution of forearc megathrust earthquakes and arc volcanoes in subduction zones remain poorly understood. Here we present a high‐resolution seismic tomographic model of the Central American subduction zone, derived from a joint inversion of local body‐wave and teleseismic Rayleigh‐wave data.

Mapping Glacier Bed Topography in Crevassed Regions: A New Passive Seismic Reflection Method Applied to Isunnguata Sermia, West Greenland

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Glacier bed topography is crucial for modeling ice mass loss. However, heavily crevassed regions are challenging to survey using conventional methods, leading to data gaps. We establish a passive seismic approach exploiting naturally occurring crevassing events recorded with a dense seismic array to image the ice–bed interface without spatial ...

Illumination and Resolution Analyses on Marine Seismic Data Acquisitions by the Adjoint Wavefield Method

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2012
We applied a wave-equation based adjoint wavefield method for seismic illumination and resolution analyses. A two-way wave-equation is used to calculate directional and diffracted energy fluxes for waves propagating between sources and receivers to the ...

Numerical Simulations of 3D Scattering Structures Reveal Systematic Underestimation of Marsquake Magnitudes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Determining marsquake magnitudes is essential for assessing seismic activity on Mars, yet previous estimates neglect three‐dimensional (3D) scattering effects. The exceptionally long‐lasting coda of the largest recorded marsquake, S1222a, provides a unique opportunity to quantify how crustal heterogeneities affect waveform propagation and ...

Full waveform inversion in time and frequency domain of velocity modeling in seismic imaging: FWISIMAT a Matlab code

open access: yesEarth Sciences Research Journal, 2018
This paper investigates the capability of acoustic Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) in building Marmousi velocity model, in time and frequency domain. FWI is an iterative minimization of misfit between observed and calculated data which is generally solved ...

Fault‐Controlled Plumbing System Beneath Lipari Volcanic Island Revealed by Seismic Matrix Imaging

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Lipari Island hosts an active magmatic–hydrothermal system, but its deep plumbing architecture remains poorly resolved due to strong seismic scattering. We apply passive seismic matrix imaging to public vertical‐component cross‐correlation functions from the dense 2018 Lipari nodal array, recovering relative‐reflectivity structures to ∼10 km ...
