Extraction of P-wave reflections from microseisms

Monitoring remote ocean waves using P-wave microseisms

Oceanic microseisms are generated by the interaction of opposing ocean waves and subsequent coupling with the seabed, so microseisms should contain information on the ocean conditions that generated them. This leads to the possibility of using seismic records as a proxy for the ocean gravity wavefield. Here we investigate the P-wave component of microseisms, which has previously been linked to ...

X - 2 Neale Et Al . : Monitoring Ocean Waves from P - Wave Microseisms

Surface wave tomography from microseisms in Southern California

[1] Since it has already been demonstrated that point-topoint seismic propagation Green Functions can be extracted from seismic noise, it should be possible to image Earth structure using the ambient noise field. Seismic noise data from 148 broadband seismic stations in Southern California were used to extract the surface wave arrival-times between all station pairs in the network. The seismic ...

Pelagic and coastal sources of P‐wave microseisms: Generation under tropical cyclones

[1] Nonlinear wave‐wave interactions generate double‐ frequency (DF) microseisms, which include both surface waves (mainly Rayleigh‐type) and compressional (P) waves. Although it is unclear whether DF surface waves generated in deep oceans are observed on land, we show that beamforming of land‐based seismic array data allows detection of DF P waves generated by ocean waves from Super Typhoon Io...

Wave reflections from duct terminations.

The reflection coefficients and inertial end corrections of several duct terminations, including finite length duct extensions perpendicular to an infinite wall, as well as at a number of angles, curved interface surfaces, and annular cavities, are determined and analyzed in the absence of flow by employing the boundary element method. Predictions for the classical unflanged and flanged circula...
