1D P-wave Velocity Model

Vp/Vs analysis from traveltime data. Investigation of the possible role of the fluid migrations in the fault system. Method: linear regression of S-P vs P traveltimes (Wadati diagram). Application to: Foreshocks (manual picks: events from 2009 January 16 to 2009 April 06 (h 00:36) Aftershocks (on MPX dataset: in progress)
