Seismic Velocity Estimation in the Middle East from Multiple Waveform Functionals: P & S Receiver Functions, Waveform Fitting, and Surface Wave Dispersion
Abstract
We demonstrated that SPL waveform data, together with associated phases, are able to constrain crustal and upper mantle seismic wave velocity structures. Forward modeling is done using a reflectivity algorithm and optimization is carried out using an algorithm called very fast simulated annealing (VFSA). The code runs efficiently on multiple processors using MPI routines.
