Quantifying Seismic Source Parameter Uncertainties
We use data from a small aperture array in southern California to quantify variations in source parameter estimates at closely spaced stations (distances ranging from ∼7 to 350 m) to provide constraints on parameter uncertainties. Many studies do not consider uncertainties in these estimates even though they can be significant and have important implications for studies of earthquake source phy...
متن کاملAmbient 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 کاملImproved Shallow Seismic-Reflection Source: Building a Better Buffalo
An improved design of the buffalo gun, incorporating hole drilling and shooting into one operation with almost total blast containment, provided nearly 50 percent more recordable seismic signal than the traditional buffalo gun. The ‘auger gun’ is designed to optimize field efficiency, source couple, and safety. The auger gun consists of three main parts: power source, auger/screw, and modified ...
متن کاملNoninvasive shallow seismic source comparison for hazardous waste site investigations
Many commonly used shallow seismic sources are unacceptable for hazardous waste site investigations because they risk exhumation of contaminants in the soil, they add contaminants (e.g. lead) which are not allowed by regulations, or they add new migration paths for contaminants. Furthermore, recently developed high frequency vibrators for shallow investigations could be more effective at some s...
متن کاملDetermination of Source Parameters by Amplitude Equalization
The radiation patterns of Love and Rayleigh waves from three nuclear explosions (Hardhat, Haymaker, and Shoal) are studied to determine the nature of the asymmetry of radiation and the mechanism of Love wave generation. From a comparative study of different explosions it is reasoned that the Love waves are generated at the source of the explosion. The source function, represented as the superim...
