TL;DR: In this paper, a time domain polarization filter was used to increase the signal to noise ratio of teleseismic body phases, and the direction of polarization was found from the eigenvector of the largest principle axis.

TL;DR: The LITHOPROBE seismic reflection project on Vancouver Island was designed to study the large-scale structure of several accreted terranes exposed on the island and to determine the geometry and structural characteristics of the subducting Juan de Fuca plate as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a particle velocity-stress, finite-difference method is developed for the simulation of wave propagation in 2-D heterogeneous poroelastic media, instead of the prevailing second-order differential equations, they consider a first-order hyperbolic system that is equivalent to Biot's equations.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use reflection data from the south central Canadian Cordillera covering the interval from the easternmost metamorphic core complexes near Arrow Lakes to Fraser River fault system along the Fraser River reveal a highly reflective and complex crust.

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of the Lithoprobe Deep Probe and Southern Alberta Refraction Experiment data sets, focusing on the region between Deep Probe shots 43 and 55, has resulted in a continental-scale velocity s
