Geophysical noise interferometry: Repairing the broken mirror

Under conditional circumstances, the correlation of noise at two receivers is approximately proportional to the Green’s function between these receivers. Hence, the correlation process turns one of the receivers into a virtual source, of which the response is observed by the other receiver. This principle, also known as ambient-noise...

Improved surface?wave retrieval from ambient seismic noise by multi?dimensional deconvolution

The methodology of surface?wave retrieval from ambient seismic noise by crosscorrelation relies on the assumption that the noise field is equipartitioned. Deviations from equipartitioning degrade the accuracy of the retrieved surface?wave Green's function. A point?spread function, derived from the same ambient noise field, quantifies the...
