The Early Structural Evolution and Anisotropy of the Oceanic Upper Mantle
The dispersion of Love and Rayleigh waves in the period range 17–167 s is used to detect the change in the structure of the upper mantle as the age of the sea-floor increases aw...
On Regional Differences in Dispersion of Mantle Rayleigh Waves
Rayleigh waves generated by the Peru—Bolivian border earthquake of 1963 August 15 have been analysed at 35 WWSSN stations in the period range between 150 and 300 seconds. Thirty...
A new method for the analysis of multi-mode surface-wave dispersion: Application to Love-wave propagation in the east Pacific
abstract A new technique is presented for simultaneously measuring the average, regional phase velocity of two or more surface-wave modes, even if they travel with the same grou...
Residual dispersion measurement—a new method of surface-wave analysis
Abstract Measurements of group velocities by means of band-pass filtering lead to systematic errors when group in velocity changes rapidly with frequency. A new method hereafter...
Earth Structure from Free Oscillations and Travel Times
An extensive set of reliable gross Earth data has been inverted to obtain a new estimate of the radial variations of seismic velocities and density in the Earth. The basic data ...
