Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT). In this project we are aiming to produce high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) shear wave velocity models at various scales, with emphasis on the upper 10’s of kilometers. ANT will be utilized with continuous data from permanent and temporary broadband and short-period stations to construct a 3D shear-wave … Continue Reading »
