The rapid expansion of broad-band seismic networks over the last decade has paved the
way for a new generation of global tomographic models. Significantly improved resolution of …

The strong sensitivity of seismic surface waves to the Moho is evident from a mere visual
inspection of their dispersion curves or waveforms. Rayleigh and Love waves have been …

Building on global adjoint tomography model GLAD-M15, we present transversely isotropic
global model GLAD-M25, which is the result of 10 quasi-Newton tomographic iterations with …

We have developed model S40RTS of shear-velocity variation in Earth's mantle using a new
collection of Rayleigh wave phase velocity, teleseismic body-wave traveltime and normal …

We present the first-generation global tomographic model constructed based on adjoint
tomography, an iterative full-waveform inversion technique. Synthetic seismograms were …

Observations of seismic anisotropy yield some of the most direct constraints available on
both past and present-day deformation in the Earth's mantle. Insight into the character of …

Although plate tectonics started as a theory of the ocean basins nearly 50 years ago, the
mechanical details of how it works are still poorly known. Our understanding of these details …

We present a tomographic model of radially anisotropic shear velocity variations in the
Earth's mantle based on a new compilation of previously published data sets and a variable …

We develop and apply a full waveform inversion method that incorporates seismic data on a
wide range of spatio-temporal scales, thereby constraining the details of both crustal and …

We use normal-mode splitting functions in addition to surface wave phase anomalies, body
wave traveltimes and long-period waveforms to construct a 3-D model of anisotropic shear …
