High-Resolution Imaging of the Mantle Transition Zone beneath Japan from Sparse Receiver Functions
DownloadFall 2012
A new approach to estimate high-resolution receiver functions using a simultaneous iterative time-domain sparse deconvolution is presented. To test its functionality and reliability, several experiments were conducted with synthetic and real seismological data. Furthermore, this technique was...

Seismic Imaging of the Sedimentary and Upper Crustal Structures of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin
DownloadFall 2023
Secondary converted waves from receiver functions are highly sensitive to physical properties below the Earth’s surface. When modeled properly, the waveforms of converted waves offer direct constraints on the impedance contrast, depth, and P-to-S velocity ratio pertaining to sedimentary, crustal...
