Seismic Tomography with irregular parameterization

This is the Seismology and Geomagnetism Group (Research School of Earth Sciences, Australian National University) home page for codes, methods and examples of seismic tomography with irregular parameterization that we have developed. Traditional methods of seismic tomography represent structure in terms of regular grids or truncated Fourier series, both of which may be inconsistent with the inhomogeneous distribution of data that characterizes most seismic surveys. In such circumstances, the extraction of structural information from the data is not maximized. With an inhomogeneous distribution of data, the minimum wavelength of structure that can be resolved varies both spatially and directionally; only an irregular parameterization is capable of capturing such information.
