POST-DOCTORAL PROGRAM IN SEISMOLOGY

Abstract

The research efforts of the research associates supported by this program are described. These studies are divided into two groups: I. Continental size arrays and their application, and II. Theoretical seismograms and earth structure. A continental size array can be realized by considering individual seismic stations as array elements. The theoretical seismograms for P and S waves are computed for a model of point source in layered medium and matched with observed records.
