Journal ArticleDOI

Crustal seismic imaging from multifold ocean bottom seismometer data by frequency domain full waveform tomography: Application to the eastern Nankai trough

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the feasibility of full waveform tomography based on dense ocean bottom seismometer data sets and its ability to quantitatively image the entire crust with a significantly improved resolution compared to what is usually achieved through traveltime tomography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Megathrust earthquakes can nucleate in the forearc mantle: Evidence from the 2004 Sumatra event

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the great 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake propagates downdip along the interface between the forearc mantle and the subducting plate, and nucleated along this reportedly aseismic part of the interplate contact.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seismic imaging of forearc backthrusts at northern Sumatra subduction zone

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a high-resolution deep seismic reflection image of the northern Sumatran subduction forearc, near the 2004 December 26 Sumatra earthquake epicentral region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined traveltime and frequency-domain seismic waveform inversion: a case study on multi-offset ultrasonic data

TL;DR: In this article, a mixed tomographic approach is adopted in which traveltime and waveform inversion are combined iteratively, and the data computed in the final tomographic model match most of the observed features in the experimental seismograms.
