GLOBAL vs EXPLORATION SEISMOLOGY - 2
> exploration studies have adopted acoustic approximation to model pure P-P back-scattering interactions (explosive source / vertical sensors)
> computationally and practically expedient

GEOMETRICAL CONSIDERATIONS
> Key definitions

> Teleseismic S
> Other phases
![Page 9: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
KEY DEFINITIONS
> Teleseismic wave: body wave recorded at epicentral distance > 30 degrees
> Incident wave: contribution associated with primary body-wave phase reflected/ converted if at all only at Earth’s surface and/or core-mantle boundary (e.g. P, pP, PP, S, pS, PKP, SKS, ScS)
![Page 10: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
CANDIDATE INCIDENT WAVES

MORE KEY DEFINITIONS
> Scattered wave: contribution to teleseismic wavefield generated through scattering of incident wave from receiver-side structure
> Source: source signature and scattering from source-side structure
![Page 12: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
TELESEISMIC P - 1
most generally useful phase in receiver function studies
propagation in lower mantle ( ) simple vs propagation in transition zone ( ) that gives rise to triplicated interfering phases
![Page 13: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
UPPER MANTLE TRIPLICATIONS
> Erdogan & Nowack, 1993, PAGEOP, 141, 1-24
![Page 14: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
TELESEISMIC P - 2
for slowness is single valued, monotonically decreasing function of (0.08 s/km to 0.04 s/km between 30 and 100 degrees
near vertical propagation, less probability of critical reflection
wavefront curvature small; adopt plane wave approximation
![Page 15: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
DEPTH PHASE COMPLICATIONS
Depth phases dealt with in 2 ways:
a) at shallow depths, depth phases have slowness similar to incident wave; consider part of source
b) at greater depths, slowness differences increase but interference reduced through larger time separation and short source time functions
Transition occurs at depths between 100-200 km
![Page 16: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

TELESEISMIC STraditionally less useful owing to:
a) more limited distance (slowness) range
b) larger slownesses, closer to criticalc) interference between S, SKS, ScS
between 70-90 degreesd) variable source-side polarization
imprinte) lower frequency contentf) higher signal-generated noise levels

RECEIVER FUNCTIONS & DECONVOLUTION
Since P-component is minimum phase and dominated by direct wave at time 0, it can be used as an estimate of source time function and deconvolved from Sv, Sh components to produce estimate of S-contributions to Earth’s Green’s function
![Page 34: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
GREEN’S FN vs RECEIVER FN
> Receiver function is a leading order approximation to Green’s function
> P-component captures direct wave
> S-component captures 1st order scattered wavefield
![Page 35: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
IMPROVED RX FNS - MOTIVATIONS-component of P receiver function comprises conversions sensitive to combinations of , e.g.
P-component of P Green’s function contains information on , e.g.
improved estimate of Green’s function would allow tighter constraints to be applied to lithological interpretation, and would narrow the gap between active and passive source studies
Improved representation of Earth’s Green’s Function involves blind deconvolution

WATER-LEVEL DECONVOLUTION > water-level deconvolution introduced by Clayton & Wiggins
> for small c approaches deconvolution, large c approaches scaled cross-correlation
> similar to damped least squares solution

SIMULTANEOUS DECONVOLUTION
> when large numbers of seismograms representing a single receiver/Green’s function are available, perform simultaneous, least-squares deconvolution
> advantageous due to fact that smaller sum of spectra in denominator reduce likelihood of spectral zeros allowing for smaller values of water level parameter to be used
> Gurrola et al, 1995, GJI, 120, 537-543

1-D INVERSION
> 3 categories:
1. Least-squares inversion
2. Monte Carlo / Directed Search
3. Inverse Scattering
![Page 40: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
LEAST-SQUARES INVERSION
> receiver function inversion cast in standard inverse theory framework
> less expensive than MC/DS methods and makes less stringent demands on data than inverse scattering methods
> data insufficiency compensated for by regularization (e.g. damping)
> like MC/DS methods LS involves model matching so there is no formal requirement that data are delivered as Green’s functions (e.g. receiver function is adequate); only a forward modelling engine is strictly required
![Page 41: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
LEAST-SQUARES IMPLEMENTATION
> string receiver function or series of receiver functions end-to-end in vector d in either time or frequency domains and write as:
where is (non-linear) forward modelling operator operating on elasticity c
> can be represented through layer matrix methods (Haskell, 1962, JGR, 67, 4751-4767 - exact but expensive) or ray methods (Langston, 1977, BSSA, 67, 1029-1050 - cheap but incomplete)

LEAST-SQUARES IMPLEMENTATION
> address non-linearity in inverse problem by expanding receiver function as Taylor series about starting model
> rearrange, discard non-linear terms and write in matrix form as
where is data residual vector
is sensitivity matrix

LEAST-SQUARES IMPLEMENTATION
> solve in standard fashion with desired regularization, e.g.
and iterate until convergence to address non-linearity
> since receiver functions are sensitive to short-wavelength structure, generally taken to represent slowly/rapidly varying component of velocity model, respectively
> receiver functions often combined with surface wave dispersion data to constrain long wavelength structure

MONTE CARLO / DIRECTED SEARCH
> feasible owing to high-performance computing and relatively few model parameters in 1-D inversions
> no need for derivative ( ) calculation, meaning one can define an arbitrary measure of misfit
> global in nature and so less apt to identify local misfit minima as solutions
> pure Monte Carlo rarely used since inefficient, rather use directed search algorithms:
1. genetic algorithms2. nearest neighbour

GENETIC ALGORITHMS> begin with a population of models generated through an initial (uniform or random) sampling of model space

CONCLUSIONS high-frequency, scattered teleseismic body waves
afford highest structural resolution of any component of the global seismic wavetrain
preprocessing of 3-component seismograms to effectively isolate modal contributions and remove source signature is an important pre-requisite to imaging at higher frequencies
imaging practice to date has relied heavily on asymptotic approaches; future efforts will likely focus on full wavefield inversion through non-linear optimization

LIPPMAN-SCHWINGER EQUATION
BORN APPROXIMATION
![Page 93: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
MOTIVATION
> two dominant, negative consequences follow from the Born approximation:
1. reference medium must be sufficiently close to real Earth to ensure that phase of wavefields is accurately represented (ie avoid cycle skipping); becomes increasingly problematic at higher frequencies
2. failure to account for higher-order scattering in the form of multiple reflection/conversion; less serious for teleseismic waves if reference wavefield includes free-surface reflections since lithospheric material property contrasts are generally small
![Page 94: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
MOTIVATION> despite feasibility of combining direct and free-surface reflected modes in linearized teleseismic scattering description; it has not been performed
> reason is partly computational, Hessian is no longer block diagonal in asymptotic treatments
> most analyses assume that only one scattering mode is present in the data (e.g. forward scattering)
such that other modes (i.e. free-surface reflections) are a source of contamination
> motivation to consider formal decomposition of into different modes comes from exploration practice
![Page 95: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
THE INVERSE SCATTERING SERIES
> follow Weglein et al, 2002, IP, 19, R27-R83 and adopt succinct operator notation that is independent of geometry and model type; Lippman-Schwinger equation is:
> first 3 quantities represent integral operators that act on a force distribution, i.e.
> 4th quantity is differential operator that includes action of material property perturbations
![Page 96: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
INVERSE SCATTERING SERIES
> by successive insertion of first relation we recover forward scattering series
> note not required to solve the forward problem
> goal of inverse problem to recover , postulate series in orders of data of form
> insertion of inverse series into forward series permits term by term solution

SUBSERIES APPROACH
> Weglein et al (2003) have shown that blind application of series approach is marred by poor convergence
> opt instead for a sub series approach wherein individual terms are identified with specific tasks, and a sequential application is performed for reflection data:
1. removal of free-surface multiples2. removal of internal multiples3. imaging of scatterer location4. material property recovery
> tasks 1,2 solved; tasks 3,4 topic of current research
![Page 98: STRUCTURAL IMAGING USING SCATTERED TELESEISMIC BODY WAVES Michael Bostock Department of Earth & Ocean Sciences The University of British Columbia ESIW-UCBerkeley,](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649de55503460f94addecc/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
IMPLICATIONS FROM WEGLEIN
> two important implications for teleseismic work:
1) sequential treatment which proceeds from scattering mode decomposition (i.e. identification of forward and back scattered modes) through material property inversion is more likely to be tractable than blind application of non-linear inverse scattering series
2) it is possible to transform teleseismic transmission problem directly into reflection problem such that formulation developed for exploration purposes is then directly applicable

1) transmission to reflection transformation2) inverse scattering series (free-surface multiple elimination)
> multi-dimensional implementation requires: a) complete data from 3 components qP, qS1, qS2b) complete spatial coverage
> practical implementation will require interpolation and regularization to deal with field data sets.

This special section on solid-earth seismology consists ofpapers about studies associated with IRIS, the IncorporatedResearch Institutions for Seismology. This is not an arbitrarychoice; the recent advances made by IRIS groups have begunto have an impact on exploration seismology, particularly inpassive seismic imaging, imaging of converted transmissions,and velocity analysis of long-offset diving waves. Nevertheless,we feel the impact would be larger if more explorationists wereaware of these advances.

> two complications in extension of foregoing methodology to teleseismic S:
1. S-component of teleseismic-S-Green’s function cannot be minimum phase due to 2nd (and higher) order multiple, acausal forward scattering (e.g. S-to-P-toS)
Can be dealt with by ignoring (ie to first order minimum phase)
2. Incoming S polarization depends on source and in general is not known - to which component of S should minimum phase assumption apply?
For isotropic, 1-D media, minimum phase assumption can be made independently for both SV and SH components, e.g. S-receiver functions
