| Abstract: | Joint inversion of teleseismic P-waveforms and local group velocities of surface waves retrieved from ambient seismic noise
has been performed to model velocity structure of the crust and uppermost mantle of the Bohemian Massif. We analysed P-waveforms
of 381 teleseismic earthquakes recorded at 54 broadband seismic stations located on the territory of the Czech Republic and
in its close surroundings. Group velocities of Rayleigh and Love surface waves were obtained by cross-correlating long-term
recordings of seismic noise. The basis for waveform inversion is the well-known methodology of P-to-S receiver functions constructed
from converted phases. Due to instabilities in direct inversion of receiver functions caused by the necessity of applying
deconvolution, we propose an alternative formulation to fit observed and calculated radial components of P waveforms. The
joint inversion is transformed into a search for the minimum of the cost function defined as a weighted sum of waveform and
group velocity misfits. With the use of the robust stochastic optimizer (Differential Evolution Algorithm), neither derivatives
nor a starting model are needed. The task was solved for 1D layered isotropic models of the crust and the uppermost mantle.
We have performed a sequence of inversions with models containing one, two, three and four layers above a half-space. By using
statistical criteria (F-test) we were able to select the simplest velocity models satisfying data and representing local geological
structures. Complex crustal models are typical for stations located close to boundaries of major tectonic units. The relatively
low average P to S wave-velocity ratio is in agreement with the generally accepted view that the BM crust is predominantly
felsic. |
