Summary
Banda_ANT_CrustVs_2020 is a 3-D crustal shear wave velocity model in the Banda Arc collision zone from ambient noise tomography with ~4-year data from 30 temporary broadband seismometers (YS array) deployed in the Nuna Tenggara Timur region of Indonesia and Timor-Leste, augmented by data of three permanent stations (GE network) in the region.

| Short Description | Banda_ANT_CrustVs_2020 is based on ambient noise tomography with ~4-year data from the Banda Arc passive seismic experiment consisting of 30 broadband instruments (YS array) in the Nuna Tenggara Timur region of Indonesia and Timor-Leste (latitude 7.5°S-11.25°S, longitude 117.5°E-128.5°E), augmented by data from three permanent seismic stations of the GE network in the region. | ||

| Depth Coverage | 0 – 65 km (best resolution <50 km) | ||
| Area | Banda Arc (latitude: 7.5°-11.25° South and longitude is 117.5°-128.5° East) | ||
| Data Set Description | The 3-D Vs model in the crust and uppermost mantle is based on Rayleigh wave phase velocity dispersions (6-37 s) measured from continuous data from March 2014 to December 2018 (~4 years) recorded by 33 stations in the Banda Arc region and a 3-D surface wave direct inversion algorithm. Details are in Zhang and Miller, (2020). |
||
| Model Resolution Description; | Checkerboard tests with checker size of 0.75° by 0.75° show that the Vs model in upper 50 km can be reasonably resolved in regions where data coverage is dense with lateral resolution of ~60-80 km, although varying degrees of smearing are observed. Please refer to Zhang and Miller, (2020) for checkerboard test images and more details. |
