Description
Several high-resolution 2D seismic surveys over known targets, such as tunnels on the Rice University campus, using both p-wave and s-wave sources, and single component and muti-component sensors. These data will be used to test advanced near-surface imaging and inversion techniques, such as frequency-dependent traveltime tomography and waveform tomography.
