Rapid Full-Wave Centroid Moment Tensor (CMT) Inversion in a Three-Dimensional Earth Structure Model for Earthquakes in Southern California
S U M M A R Y A central problem of seismology is the inversion of regional waveform data for models of earthquake sources. In regions such as Southern California, preliminary 3-D earth structure models are already available, and efficient numerical methods have been developed for 3-D anelastic wave-propagation simulations. We describe an automated procedure that utilizes these capabilities to d...
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 Compressional- and Shear-wave Seismic Velocity Models for the Southeast Geysers Geothermal Field, California
Three-dimensional compressionaland shear-wave velocity (“Vp” and “Vs,” respectively) structure is obtained for the SE Geysers geothermal area from microearthquake arrival-time data. The results indicate a region of high Vp and high Vs in the northwest portion of the area studied, and a low value of VpNs at depths corresponding to the upper part of the steam reservoir. The Vp and Vs anomalies ar...
متن کاملRegional S-wave structure for southern California from the analysis of teleseismic Rayleigh waves
Teleseismic Rayleigh waves, Ms > 7.0, in the period range 14 to 28 s, are well recorded by the short-period Benioff array within southern California. Multiple arrivals that hinder the determination of local phase velocity curves are detected by narrow band-pass filtering. The records are then windowed on distinct, coherent peaks that move uniformly across the array. Four to seven stations are i...
متن کاملThe morning glory wave of southern California
[1] A pulse-like disturbance traveling across the Los Angeles basin was observed on 12 October 2001 with seismographs of the TriNet network. This wave had a period of about 1000 s and a propagation speed of about 10 m/s, much slower than seismic waves. The seismograph data were compared with barograph data, and a good correlation was found so the wave was determined to be atmospheric in origin....
