Shear Velocity Models by B. Kustowski (2007, 2008)
We have created (i) a new radially anisotropic reference
Earth model, (ii) a new global model of the anisotropic shear-wave velocity
in the mantle, and (iii) a shear-wave velocity model of the upper mantle
beneath Eurasia. The data used in the inversions comprise surface-wave
phase anomalies, long-period waveforms, and travel times of teleseismic
body waves.
