Ambient noise surface wave tomography of the Iberian Peninsula: Implications for shallow seismic structure
[1] We have obtained high resolution group velocity maps of Rayleigh waves at periods from 8 to 25 seconds across the Iberian Peninsula by cross-correlating four months of ambient noise data recorded by 40 permanent broadband stations. Group velocity maps accurately image the main structural elements of the Iberian upper crust, including the Iberian Massif, Alpine orogens and major sedimentary ...
متن کاملSurface Wave Tomography of China from Ambient Seismic Noise Correlation
We perform ambient noise tomography of China using the data from the China National Seismic Network and surrounding global and regional stations. For most of the station pairs, we retrieve good Rayleigh waveforms from ambient noise correlations using 18-months of continuous data at all distance ranges across the entire region (over 5000 km) and for periods from 70 s down to about 8 s. We obtain...
متن کاملPassive Acoustic and Seismic Tomography with Ocean Ambient Noise in Orion
We demonstrate that an estimate of the point-to-point seismic propagation Green Functions can be extracted from microseisms. These estimated Green’s function, obtained from 30 days of continuous seismic data from 151 seismic stations in Southern California, are used to extract the group velocity of surface waves between all station pairs in the network. The seismic data were then used in a simp...
متن کاملTowards improving ambient noise tomography using simultaneously curvelet denoising filters and SEM simulations of seismic ambient noise
The aim of this article is to investigate a possible way to improve ambient noise tomography by expanding the data base of useful cross-correlation measurements. We show that the curvelet transform makes it possible to compute synthetic noise correlations by simulating directly seismic ambient noise using the spectral element method. These synthetic correlations can in turn be used to identify ...
متن کاملAmbient Noise Tomography in the Western US using Data from the EarthScope/USArray Transportable Array
The teleseismic transmission of seismic surface waves from earthquakes results in a loss of the high frequencies needed to infer information about Earth’s crust and uppermost mantle. A recent innovation in seismic imaging based on using long time sequences of ambient seismic noise moves beyond some of the limitations imposed on earthquakebased methods to reveal high resolution information about...
