Global anisotropic phase velocity maps for higher mode Love and Rayleigh waves
S U M M A R Y It is well established that the Earth’s uppermost mantle is anisotropic, but there are no clear observations of anisotropy in the deeper parts of the mantle. Surface waves are well suited to observe anisotropy since they carry information about both radial and azimuthal anisotropy. Fundamental mode surface waves, for commonly used periods up to 200 s, are sensitive to structure in...
متن کاملReply to comment by S. Crampin on ‘Global anisotropic phase velocity maps for higher mode Love and Rayleigh waves’
S U M M A R Y We thank Stuart Crampin for his interest in our recent paper but respectfully disagree when he argues that our measurements are not appropriate for inferring mantle anisotropy. The approximations we made are common and perfectly acceptable for the considered frequency band. The comment ignores a large part of the literature which investigated this. We will discuss the validity of ...
متن کاملN Situ Measurements of Shear - Wave Velocity I N Sediments with Higher - Mode Rayleigh Waves
GABRIELS, P., SNIEDER, . and NOLET, G. 1987, In Situ Measurement of Shear-Wave Velocity in Sediments with Higher-Mode Rayleigh Waves, 35,187-196. A seismic survey was carried out on a tidal flat in the SW-Netherlands in order to determine shear-wave velocities in sediments by means of higher-mode Rayleigh waves. The dispersion properties of these Rayleigh waves were measured in the 2-D amplitud...
متن کاملA global shear velocity model of the upper mantle from fundamental and higher Rayleigh mode measurements
[1] We present DR2012, a global SV-wave tomographic model of the upper mantle. We use an extension of the automated waveform inversion approach of Debayle (1999) which improves our mapping of the transition zone with extraction of fundamental and higher-mode information. The new approach is fully automated and has been successfully used to match approximately 375,000 Rayleigh waveforms. For eac...
متن کاملHigher-mode ambient-noise Rayleigh waves in sedimentary basins
S U M M A R Y We show that higher modes are an important component of high-frequency Rayleigh waves in the cross-correlations over sedimentary basins. The particle motions provide a good test for distinguishing and separating the fundamental from the first highermode, with the fundamental mode having retrograde and the first higher mode having prograde motion in the 1–10 s period of interest. T...
