Report on the sensitivity kernel construction and updating the SPiRaL model with waveform data
The WAVEFORMS Initiative in the Ground-based Nuclear Detonation Detection (GNDD) program includes research leading towards the prediction of entire seismic and acoustic waveforms produced by natural and manmade events, including explosions. A key aspect of this research is the development of Earth (seismic) models at multiple scales including crustal, regional, and global. The work described here pertains to the global-scale seismic tomography effort led by LLNL.
