Observing Wave Field Gradients in Seismology – Applications, Instrumentation and Theory
Observing Wave Field Gradients in Seismology – Applications, Instrumentation and Theory
Session ID#: 121950
Session Description:
Recent advances in seismic instrumentation have made direct observation of the complete seismic wave field possible, including the spatial gradients of the wave field, rotation and strain. Collocated observations of translation, strain and rotation open new applications in various disciplines such as seismic exploration, volcanology, glaciology, ocean bottom seismology, earthquake engineering and planetary exploration as well as geodesy and gravitational wave detection.
We invite contributions on any recent development in the fields of applications, instrumentation, and theory for observing seismic ground rotation, strain and translation. These may include - but are not restricted to -alternative technologies for seismometers (e.g., optical technologies), fiber-optic technologies, such as fiber-optic gyroscopes or distributed acoustic sensing, high-frequency GPS, and array based methods. We strongly encourage contributions on data analysis techniques, instrument performance testing and experimental field studies.
