Seismic hazard site assessment in Kitimat, British Columbia, via bernstein-polynomial-based inversion of surface-wave dispersion
This thesis applies a fully nonlinear Bayesian inversion methodology to estimate shear-wave velocity (Vs) profiles and uncertainties from surface-wave dispersion data extracted from ambient seismic noise. In the inversion, the Vs profile is parameterized using a Bernstein polynomial basis, which eff...
