Seismic waves in horizontally stratified half-space
Abstract
A reflectivity method for computing synthetic seismograms was modified to include both body and surface waves from a buried source in a layered half space. The vertical displacements were computed for various structures at different source locations to elucidate numerical difficulties encountered with the reflectivity method. Portions of the seismograms were interpreted in terms of reflected, refracted, and surface waves.
