Shear velocity model of Alaska via joint inversion of Rayleigh wave ellipticity, phase velocities, and receiver functions across the Alaska Transportable Array
Abstract Through the Alaska Transportable Array deployment of over 200 stations, we create
a 3‐D tomographic model of Alaska with sensitivity ranging from the near surface (< 1 km) …

A Generalized H‐κ Method With Harmonic Corrections on Ps and Its Crustal Multiples in Receiver Functions
The H‐κ method (Zhu & Kanamori, 2000, https://doi. org/10.1029/1999JB900322) has been
widely used to estimate the crustal thickness (H) and the ratio of P to S velocities (VP/VS …
