• Crustal Structure of Sri Lanka Derived From Joint Inversion of Surface Wave Dispersion and Receiver Functions Using a Bayesian Approach 

  Dreiling, Jennifer; Tilmann, Frederik; Yuan, Xiaohui; Haberland, Christian; Seneviratne, S. W. Mahinda (Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2020-05-14)

  Abstract We study the crustal structure of Sri Lanka by analyzing data from a temporary seismic network deployed in 2016–2017 to shed light on the amalgamation process from a geophysical perspective. Rayleigh wave phase ...

• Using a Large‐n Seismic Array to Explore the Robustness of Spectral Estimations 

  Kemna, K. B.; Peña Castro, A. F.; Harrington, R. M.; Cochran, E. S. (Geophysical Research Letters, 2020-10-31)

  Abstract Spectral analysis is widely used to estimate and refine earthquake source parameters such as source radius, seismic moment, and stress drop. This study aims to quantify the precision of the single spectra and ...

• Untersuchungen zur Geschwindigkeitsstruktur im unteren Erdmantel und im Bereich der Kern-Mantei-Grenze unterhalb des Pazifiks mit Scherwellen 

  Schweitzer, Johannes (Institut für Meteorologie und Geophysik, Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main, 1990)

  In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden anomale Laufzeitdifferenzen zwischen den Mantel- und Kernphasen S, Sdiff, SKS und SKKS mit lateralen Geschwindigkeitsperturbationen gegenüber dem Standarderdmodell PREM erklärt. Das ...

• Subsoil classification and geotechnical zonation for Guadalajara City, México: Vs30, soil fundamental periods, 3D structure and profiles 

  Ramírez Gaytan, Alejandro; Flores Estrella, Hortencia; Preciado, Adolfo; Bandy, William L.; Lazcano, Salvador; Alcántara Nolasco, Leonardo; Aguirre González, Jorge; Korn, Michael (Near Surface Geophysics, 2020-01-25)

  ABSTRACT Guadalajara, Jalisco, is the second largest city in Mexico with around 4.5 million inhabitants. A high seismic hazard exists in the city due to forces produced by the interaction between the Rivera, Cocos and North ...

• Modification of the Seismic Properties of Subducting Continental Crust by Eclogitization and Deformation Processes 

  Zertani, Sascha; John, Timm; Tilmann, Frederik; Motra, Hem B.; Keppler, Ruth; Andersen, Torgeir B.; Labrousse, Loic (Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019-09-11)

  Abstract Subduction zone processes and the resulting geometries at depth are widely studied by large‐scale geophysical imaging techniques. The subsequent interpretations are dependent on information from surface exposures ...
