Session ID#: 12831

Session Description:
Ambient-noise based seismological techniques have been used for understanding the 3D/4D Earth’s properties such as structure, stiffness, and attenuation in various scales. The key for the precise estimation of these parameters is the accuracy of the Green’s function extracted, which relies on, for example, ambient-noise energy distribution, receiver coverage, and appropriate signal processing.

In this session, we focus on theoretical and methodological approaches for extracting more accurate Green’s functions, and their applications. We invite contributions of novel processing and data acquisition (e.g., C3, double beamforming, multi-dimensional deconvolution (MDD), or very dense receiver array) to overcome azimuthal variation of ambient noise energy. Presentations related to amplitudes extraction, higher-mode surface waves, Love waves, or body waves in addition to the phases of the fundamental-mode Rayleigh waves are highly encouraged. We also welcome studies of the usage of multi-component signals for ambient-noise correlation, which can decompose different wave types.
