A Surface Wave Dispersion Study of the Crustal and Mantle Structure of China

Abstract

A measurement procedure was designed which can determine the group velocity with both good resolution and small systematic errors. This technique is being employed in a surface-wave study of the Eurasian continent. The generalized linear inversion theory is applied to obtain pure-path regional dispersion from mixed-path observations. Crust and upper mantle structure of the Eurasian continent is being interpreted with special emphasis on lateral heterogeneities.
