Seismic Wave Propagation and Scattering in the Heterogeneous Earth : Second Edition

Seismic waves - generated both by natural earthquakes and by man-made sources - have produced an enormous amount of information about the Earth's interior. In classical seismology, the Earth is modeled as a sequence of uniform horizontal layers (or spherical shells) having different elastic pro...
