Inversion of seismic refraction and wide-angle reflection traveltimes for three-dimensional layered crustal structure
We present a method for the determination of crustal structure by simultaneous inversion of seismic refraction and wide-angle reflection traveltimes for 3-D interface geometry and layer velocity. Crustal structure is represented by layers in which velocity varies linearly with depth, separated by smooth interfaces with a cubic B-spline parametrization. Lateral variations in structure are theref...
متن کاملCommunity Structure of Lithotrophically-Driven Hydrothermal Microbial Mats from the Mariana Arc and Back-Arc
The Mariana region exhibits a rich array of hydrothermal venting conditions in a complex geological setting, which provides a natural laboratory to study the influence of local environmental conditions on microbial community structure as well as large-scale patterns in microbial biogeography. We used high-throughput amplicon sequencing of the bacterial small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene from 22 micr...
متن کاملThree-dimensional seismic velocity structure of Mauna Loa and Kilauea volcanoes in Hawaii from local seismic tomography
We present a new three-dimensional seismic velocity model of the crustal and upper mantle structure for Mauna Loa and Kilauea volcanoes in Hawaii. Our model is derived from the first-arrival times of the compressional and shear waves from about 53,000 events on and near the Island of Hawaii between 1992 and 2009 recorded by the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory stations. The Vp model generally agree...
متن کاملA three-dimensional crustal seismic velocity model for southern California from a composite event method
[1] We present a new crustal seismic velocity model for southern California derived from P and S arrival times from local earthquakes and explosions. To reduce the volume of data and ensure a more uniform source distribution, we compute ‘‘composite event’’ picks for 2597 distributed master events that include pick information for other events within spheres of 2 km radius. The approach reduces ...
متن کاملThree‐dimensional seismic velocity tomography of Montserrat from the SEA‐CALIPSO offshore/onshore experiment
[1] The SEA‐CALIPSO experiment in December 2007 incorporated a sea‐based airgun source, and seismic recorders both on Montserrat and on the adjacent sea floor. A high quality subset of the data was used for a first arrival P‐wave velocity tomographic study. A total of more than 115,000 traveltime data from 4413 airgun shots, and 58 recording stations, were used in this high‐ resolution tomograp...
