| Summary: | Seismic velocity model AKEP2018 uses earthquake travel-time and ambient noise group velocity data to update the Alaska 3-D model of Eberhart-Phillips et al. (2006: AK2006), for the USGS project on developing Alaska Community Seismic Velocity Models . This 2018 model will be expanded with additional data in 2019 in the second year of the funded project. Velocity within the 3D gridded model is defined by linearly interpolating between nodes. The inversion solved for Vp and Vp/Vs. The model is provided in a table: vlAKEP2018xyzltlnSFDRE.tbl.txt, with velocity at inversion nodes in cartesian and latitude-longitude coordinates. The table provides, from the computed resolution matrix, the diagonal resolution element (DRE), and the spread function (SF), for each Vp and Vp/Vs node.
