Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recent emergence of seismic interferometry using random signals allows us to delineate temporal changes of seismic velocities associated with earthquakes and volcanic activity. During this project, we delineated shallow seismic velocity changes associated with the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake to find that seismic velocity changes do not correlated with neither static nor dynamic stress changes. Instead, velocity changes tend to be larger around active volcanoes. We also discussed briefly the origin of seismic velocity changes from theoretical point of view.
