An Introduction to Seismology, Earthquakes, and Earth Structure.

---

This book is an introduction to seismology and its role in the earth sciences, and is writer for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. The fundamentals of seismic wave propagation are developed using a physical approach and then applied to show how refraction, reflection, and teleseismic technigues are used to study the structure and thus the composition and evolution of the earth. The book shows how seismic waves are used to study earthguakes and are —..integrated with other data to investigate the plate tectonic processes that cause earthguakes. Figures, examples, problems, and computer exercises teach students about seismology in a creative and intuitive manner. Necessary mathematical tools including vector and tensor analysis, 4 matrix algebra, Fourier analysis, statistics of errors, signal processing, and data inversion are introduced with many relevant examples. The text also addresses the fundamentals of seismometry and 4 applications of seismology to societal issues. Special attention PP is paid to help students visualize connections between different topics and view seismology as an integrated science. An Introduction to Seismology, Earthguakes, and Earth . Structure gives an excellent overview for students of geophysics and tectonics, and provides a strong foundation J for further studies in seismology.
