The ray theory belongs to the methods most frequently used in seismology and seismic
exploration for forward and inverse modelling of high-frequency seismic body waves. In …

In seismic imaging experiments, it is common to use a geometric ray theory that is an
asymptotic solution of the wave equation in the high-frequency limit. Consequently, it is …

Analysis of a deployment of broadband sensors along a 500‐km‐long line crossing the
Yellowstone hotspot track (YHT) has provided 423 in‐plane receiver functions with which to …

We use a coupled surface wave version of the Born approximation to compute the3-D
sensitivity kernel KT (r) of a seismic body wave traveltime T measured by cross-correlation of …

We develop methodologies to obtain accurate measurements of shear wave splitting and
apply these techniques to examine the pattern of oceanic upper mantle anisotropy. To …

D Born–Fréchet traveltime kernel theory is recast in the context of scalar-wave propagation
in a smooth acoustic medium, for simplicity. The predictions of the theory are in excellent …

Analysis of mantle discontinuity structure using converted P to S (PaS) phases beneath
Colorado from the Program for Array Seismic Studies of the Continental Lithosphere …

Anomalous double-pulse teleseismic P-wave arrivals were observed at one station near the
northern margin of the Tibetan Plateau. The azimuthal dependence of the waveform …

We present a new coherence functional to evaluate quantitatively the goodness of waveform
fit between two time series as function of lag time. The proposed coherence measure is …

The mantle plume hypothesis was proposed thirty years ago by Jason Morgan to explain
hotspot volcanoes such as Hawaii. A thermal diapir (or plume) rises from the thermal …
