Project Title

Surface Wave Tomography

Brief Description for General Publications

Using recording from portable and permanent seismic stations across Australia, the large amplitude surface waves from regional earthquakes are analysed to determine 3-dimensional structure in seismic wavespeed. For each path from a source to a receiver an average velocity model is determined and these constraints on the 3-D structure are finally combined to produce the 3-D image.
