Application of empirical Green’s functions for the construction and validation of the GBCVM Morgan P. Moschetti and Michael H. Ritzwoller Center for Imaging the Earth’s Interior Univ. of Colorado, Boulder Arthur Rodgers and Anders Petersson Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory GBCVM Workshop, UNR January 14, 2008

Overview  Ambient noise processing for EGFs  Dispersion measurements for surface wave tomography  3-D inversion - shear wave velocity values  Comparison of EGFs and synthetics from the USGS Bay Area 3-D velocity model.  Application to GBCVM (Weaver, 2005)

Conclusions and Future Work  Empirical Green’s functions within and across Nevada for comparison and inversion.  Shear-wave velocities across Nevada for background values and model/inversion constraint.  Comparison of EGF and synthetic waveforms allows for validation and assimilation of models.  Improved data coverage from higher density arrays.
