Characterization of a Pre-Trajan wall by integrated geophysical methods [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to characterize a pre-Trajan mosaic-decorated wall structure located beneath the Cryptoporticus of the 'Baths of Trajan' complex in Rome. The surveyed wall is 15m long, 0.9m wide and 3 to 5m high.

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

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

Bayesian eikonal tomography using Gaussian processes
Eikonal tomography has become a popular methodology for deriving phase velocity maps from surface wave phase delay measurements. Its high efficiency makes it popular for handling datasets deriving from large-N arrays, in particular in the ambient-noise

Seismological reference earth model in South China (SREM-SC): Crust and uppermost mantle
The South China Block is located on the eastern margin of the Eurasian Plate and the western margin of the Pacific Plate. The South China Block is currently in a tectonically compressed environment, while the Tibetan Plateau is moving eastward and the ...

Locating earthquakes with surface waves and centroid moment tensor estimation [PDF]
Traditionally, P wave arrival times have been used to locate regional earthquakes. In contrast, the travel times of surface waves dependent on source excitation and the source parameters and depth must be determined independently.

Cavity Investigation by Surface Wave Tomography and Microgravity [PDF]
Shallow cavities, such as karstic caves in carbonate bedrock and near-surface underground mine workings and tunnels, constitute serious hazards for persons and existing constructions due to the risk of collapse and subsidence involving damages to buildings and increased urban development costs.
