The dominance of seismic wave transmission of ambient noise depends on several factors, while the research technique would determine the major type of seismic wave collected for ambient noise. For example, seismologists would often use spatial auto-correlation (SPAC) method which involve the collection and analysis of surface wave. [9]
Surface-wave inversion is the method by which elastic properties, density, and thickness of layers in the subsurface are obtained through analysis of surface-wave dispersion. [2] The entire inversion process requires the gathering of seismic data, the creation of dispersion curves, and finally the inference of subsurface properties. Figure 1.
This radiative ground wave is known as Norton surface wave, or more properly Norton ground wave, because ground waves in radio propagation are not confined to the surface. Another type of surface wave is the non-radiative, bound-mode Zenneck surface wave or Zenneck–Sommerfeld surface wave .
Version 9.0 (June 2021) completes the "shells" (free form surfaces) with surface texture analysis adapted from the ISO 25178 parameters already calculated on the standard surfaces.
This color-coded map in Robinson projection displays a progression of changing global surface temperature anomalies. Normal temperatures are shown in white. Higher than normal temperatures are shown in red and lower than normal temperatures are shown in blue. Normal temperatures are calculated over the 30 year baseline period 1951-1980.

An example cross section of an anticline with a dike cutting through, with the map of its surface expression showing strike and dip information. Cross sections are made by interpreting and extrapolating a broad range of information about a region's geological characteristics. This can include data from the surface, subsurface, and existing ...
Incident P and S wave phases for a receiver function. As a P wave in the mantle passes upwards through the Moho, it is partially converted into an S wave. Both the P-wave and S-wave (known as Ps) are picked up by the seismometer on the Earth's surface and can be used to analyze discontinuities within the Earth.
