Surface wave tomography [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1984
Surface waves are now being used by several groups to map lateral heterogeneity [Nakanishi and Anderson, 1982, 1983, 1984a, b; Woodhouse and Dziewonski, 1984] and anisotropy [Tanimoto and Anderson, 1984a, b; Nataf et al. 1984] of the upper mantle on a global basis.

On crustal corrections in surface wave tomography [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2008
SUMMARY Mantle models from surface waves rely on good crustal corrections. We investigated how far ray theoretical and finite frequency approximations can predict crustal corrections for fundamental mode surface waves. Using a spectral element method, we calculated synthetic seismograms in transversely isotropic PREM and in the 3-D crustal model ...

Regional-scale joint seismic body- and surface-wave travel time tomography

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评, 2023
To make full use of seismograms to put tight constraints on the structure of subsurface and earthquake sources has always been the research focus in seismology.

TRANSVERSE ISOTROPIC CRUST STRUCTURE BENEATH THE NORTHWEST AND CENTRAL NORTH ANATOLIA REVEALED BY SEISMIC SURFACE WAVES PROPAGATION [PDF]

open access: yesMalaysian Journal of Geosciences, 2021
The Anatolian crust, which is abnormally hot, is widely deformed by subduction related volcanism. Suture zones, transform faults, thrusts and folds and metamorphic core complexes add to the geological complexity.

Smoothness criteria in surface wave tomography [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1990
SUMMARY We discuss and develop further the methods of surface wave tomography in the frame of the geometric ray approximation. The general approach for determining the lateral phase or group velocity distribution, which is a standard 2-D tomography problem, involves linearization, representation of the unknown function as a series in some basis ...

Evolution of the Oceanic Lithosphere in the Equatorial Atlantic From Rayleigh Wave Tomography, Evidence for Small‐Scale Convection From the PI‐LAB Experiment

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
The oceanic lithosphere is a primary component of the plate tectonic system, yet its evolution and its asthenospheric interaction have rarely been quantified by in situ imaging at slow spreading systems.

3-D azimuthal anisotropy structure reveals different deformation modes of the crust and upper mantle in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The tectonic evolution and deformation process of the southeastern Tibetan Plateau has been one of the focuses of the geoscience community in recent decades.

Joint Inversion of Surface Wave Tomography and Body Wave Tomography Applied to 2D Media

open access: yes82nd EAGE Annual Conference & Exhibition, 2021
Summary Surface Wave Tomography is used to obtain a shear wave velocity model by inverting computed dispersion curves. Body Wave Tomography is used to obtain a longitudinal wave model through travel time inversion of picked first break travel times. Individual inversions suffer from various different limitations.

An SVD in Spherical Surface Wave Tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In spherical surface wave tomography, one measures the integrals of a function defined on the sphere along great circle arcs. This forms a generalization of the Funk--Radon transform, which assigns to a function its integrals along full great circles.

Identifying recharge under subtle ephemeral features in a flat-lying semi-arid region using a combined geophysical approach [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2020
Identifying and quantifying recharge processes linked to ephemeral surface water features is challenging due to their episodic nature. We use a combination of well-established near-surface geophysical methods to provide evidence of a surface and ...
