Inversion of Love waves in earthquake ground motion records for two-dimensional S-wave velocity model of deep sedimentary layers

Abstract We propose a new waveform inversion method to estimate the 2D S-wave velocity structure of deep sedimentary layers using broadband Love waves. As a preprocessing operation in our inversion scheme, we decompose earthquake observation records into velocity waveforms for periods of 1 s each. T...
