要 旨
In this study, Generalized Ray Theory (Helmberger, 1974, 1983) is used
for modelling local and regional waveforms in southwest Japan. A program
for waveform analysis has been programmed. Manual iterative technique
has been developed to retrieve the best model parameters. Several tests
have been done to study the model parameter effects on the waveform
modelling. The degree of fitting in each test is calculated by cross
correlating the observed and synthetic seismograms. The test results of
the model parameters for southwest Japan for the events used in this
study propose 2 different models. Model 1 for Biwa lake paths
characterized by a surface layer of 2.5 km thick, Vp=5.3 km/s, Vs=3.35
km/s, Conrad and Moho depths are 19 km and 33.3 km, respectively. For
other paths, there is no surface layer and the Conrad and Moho depths
are 15 km and 31 km, respectively. Our test results show that synthetic
seismograms are very sensitive to focal depth and upper crust velocity
and thickness. According to the best fittings obtained, we have
constructed travel time curves for the most common crustal phases which
are used to identify later crustal phases during the modelling process.
Sorry for delay.
