Retrieving surface waves from ambient seismic noise using seismic interferometry by multidimensional deconvolution

Retrieving virtual source surface waves from ambient seismic noise by cross correlation assumes, among others, that the noise field is equipartitioned and the medium is lossless. Violation of these assumptions reduces the accuracy of the retrieved waves. A point-spread function computed from the same ambient noise quantifies the associated...

Surface wave retrieval in layered media using seismic interferometry by multidimensional deconvolution

Virtual-source surface wave responses can be retrieved using the crosscorrelation (CC) of wavefields observed at two receivers. Higher mode surface waves cannot be properly retrieved when there is a lack of subsurface sources that excite these wavefields, as is often the case. In this paper, we present a multidimensional-deconvolution (MDD)...
