Talks:
- Mantle Dynamics Talk: (Power Point Presentation) A synthesis of seismic velocity, quality factor, & anisotropy.
- What can seismic waves tell us about the mantle transition zone: (Power Point Presentation).
- Fall AGU: Mantle Transition Zone Thickness Maps (Power Point Presentation) Transition zone thickness from finite
frequency kernels and multi-stacking.
- 3D Rendering: (Power Point Presentation) isocontours of seismic velocity, quality factor, & anisotropy.
- TAMSEIS: (Power Point Presentation) Seismic Velocity Model of the Transantarctic Mountain uplift.
Models:
- Mantle Transition Zone Topography: (Zipped XYZ files) of mantle transition zone discontinuity topography from Lawrence and Shearer 2008.
- VQM3DA: (Zipped XYZ files). of mantle velocity and attenuation anomalies from Lawrence and Wysession 2006.
Programs:
- CAL_DISP: (Fortran Program) This
program calculates the phase velocity dispersion of surface waves.
- EZXPLOT: (Fortran/C Program) Set of subroutines allows a fortran programer to use
x11 graphical interface.
- PSPLOT: (Fortran Program) Set of
subroutines allows a fortran programer to plot postscript files.
- FORTRAN
TUTORIAL/REFERENCE:This document gives a quick tutorial to fortran
and acts as a quick reference for programers.
- C and Fortran: This code-makefile gives a quick example of how to use a fortran subroutine with a C program or a C function with a fortran program.
- TRACE.VIS This code/program visually traces rays through a layered earth model. It is interactive, allowing the user to select the wave and plot the rays in different colors. Plots are to the screen through X windows (using OSX protocals). There is also an option to output to a postscript file.
