Draganov, D.S. (author), Ruigrok, E.N. (author), Ghose, R. (author), Mikesell, D. (author), Van Wijk, K. (author)We propose a method for estimating the reflection coefficient of a subvertical boundary and the the quality factor of the medium between a receiver and the subvertical boundary. The method uses surface waves from transient deterministic sources and is inspired by the occurrence of non-physical arrivals in seismic-interferometry results due to...conference paper 2014

Mikesell, T.D. (author), Van Wijk, K. (author), Ruigrok, E.N. (author), Lamb, A. (author), Blum, T.E. (author)Topography and near-surface heterogeneities lead to traveltime perturbations in surface land-seismic experiments. Usually, these perturbations are estimated and removed prior to further processing of the data. A common technique to estimate these perturbations is the delay-time method. We have developed the “modified delay-time method,” wherein...journal article 2012

Ruigrok, E.N. (author), Mikesell, T.D. (author), Van Wijk, K. (author)A novel method, based on differential arrival times of diffractions from the core-mantle boundary, swiftly scans for seismic velocity anomalies in the crust and mantle below an array of seismometers. The method is applied to data from the USArray and the large-scale structural features in the western United States are resolved. High lateral...journal article 2012
