Effect of Station and Source Factors on the Accuracy of Seismic Parameter Determination

  • Chapter
Computational Seismology

Abstract

In the solution of many experimental seismological problems, the ultimate aim is to obtain an average value of some parameter y or an averaged function y(x) of some independent variable x. The desired value y or function y(x) is isolated in a random scatter of individual measurements. Therefore only results that have been averaged for a sufficiently large volume of material are reliable and accurate.

Translated from Vychislitel’naya Seismologiya, No, 1, pp. 160–186, Moscow, Nauka (1966).
