8. Ask the students to recall how scientists use seismic wave observations to investigate the interior structure of the Earth. This is similar to checking the ripeness of a melon by tapping on it.
RTT for scalar wavelet propagation through random media 5 ... the development of new insights into stochastic properties of Earth structure through theoretical and observational studies of scattered ...
Chapter 6 studies vector wave scattering in random elastic media. The Born approximation leads to PP, PS, SP, and SS scattering coefficients, from each of which we construct the corresponding PRNG of ...
A surface wave travels along the surface of the Earth. It is the slowest of the three types of seismic wave. Surface waves usually have larger amplitude than the other waves and cause the most damage.
