  3. Lithospheric imaging from teleseismic data: principles and motivation Motivation: Build

    high-resolution elastic (VP, VS , ρ) models of lithospheric targets with a spatial resolution ∼ λ Conventional approaches: 1 Traveltime tomography lacks spatial resolution. 2 Receiver function analysis lacks accuracy in complex area. 3 Least-squares ray+Born migration (Bostock et al., 2001) Methodological approach: Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) of teleseismic data.

  4. Principles of FWI and resolution power Motivation: exploit the full

    information content of seismograms (Tarantola, 1984; Gauthier et al., 1986; Mora, 1988). Seismological references: (Tromp et al., 2005; Tape et al., 2010; Fichtner et al., 2013) Numerical optimization: minimizes a distance between recorded and modeled seismograms C(m) = 1 2 s r t (dcal(s, r, t) − dobs(s, r, t))2 = 1 2 ∆d 2, mVP ,VS ,ρ denotes the elastic parameters discretizing the lithospheric target. Forward problem: full wavefield methods, e.g., the spectral element method (Komatitsch and Tromp, 1999). A minimum of C is found by local optimization (gradient methods) m(k+1) = m(k) + ∆m(k), with ∆m(k) = −γ(k)(H(k))−1∇mC(k). ∇mC and H are the first (gradient) and second (Hessian) derivative of C .wrt. m.

  5. FWI gradient Gradient: zero-lag correlation between the data residuals ∆d

    and the partial derivative of the seismograms .wrt. the parameters. ∇mC(k) = s r t ∂dcal(s, r, t) ∂m (k) ∆d(s, r, t)(k) Physical meaning: ∂dcal (s,r,t) ∂m (k) and ∆d(s, r, t)(k) as wavefields (single-)scattered by the missing heterogeneities in mk (conceptually, represented by a fine grid of point diffractors) and recorded at the receiver positions. The zero-lag correlation between ∆d(k) and ∂dcal (s,r,t) ∂m (k) tests whether a missing heterogeneity located at the diffractor point m generated the residual ∆d(s, r, t)(k). The result of the zero-lag correlation is used to update ∇mC(k) at the position of m. Beller (Géoazur – PhD student) Lithospheric Full-Waveform Inversion 14/10/2015 - RESIF 5 / 21
