Description
Name | Cascadia_ANT+RF_Delph2018 |
Title | 3D vertical shear-wave velocity model of the Cascadian forearc from the joint inversion of ambient noise dispersion and receiver functions. |
Type | 3-D Tomography Earth Model |
Sub Type | Shear-wave velocity (km/s) |
Year | 2018 |
Short Description | This model was created from the joint inversion of ambient noise Rayleigh waves dispersion measurements (8-50 seconds) and adaptive CCP-derived receiver functions (see Delph et al., 2015, 2017 for details of methodology; Delph et al., 2018 for details of this model). |
