Mapping the thermal and compositional structure of the upper mantle requires a combined
interpretation of geophysical and petrological observations. Based on current knowledge of …

We invert global observations of fundamental and higher‐order Love and Rayleigh surface
wave dispersion data jointly at selected locations for 1‐D radial profiles of Earth's mantle …

Recent in vitro studies have shown that guided waves can characterize bone properties.
However, for clinical applications to be viable, the soft-tissue layer should be considered …

We implement the wave equation on a spherical membrane, with a finite-difference
algorithm that accounts for finite-frequency effects in the smooth-Earth approximation, and …

Observations of fundamental-mode Love-and Rayleigh-wave dispersion provide some of
the strongest constraints on the elastic structure of the upper mantle including lateral …

We present a new surface-wave tomographic study of the broad European and
Mediterranean region. Our goal is to enhance the resolution of previously published group …

I invert a large set of teleseismic phase-anomaly observations, to derive tomographic maps
of fundamental-mode surface wave phase velocity, first via ray theory, then accounting for …

Radial seismic anisotropy models are traditionally obtained using empirical constraints
based on laboratory experiments and petrological considerations. We tested the hypothesis …

A set of seismic observations which all sample the same structure in the same way should
have zero variance. This is naturally the case if all sources are in the same place, and the …

In seismology, earthquakes can be used to explore the inner structure of our planet, in the
same way as X-rays are employed in medical tomography to analyse the interior of the …
