Model Parameters
The program carries out MCMC sampling to evaluate the posterior probability distribution regarding the following parameters:
- Number of layer interfaces (k)
- Depth of each layer interface (z_i)
- S-wave velocity anomaly of each layer interface (relative to a reference velocity model)
- P-wave velocity anomaly of each layer interface (relative to a reference velocity model; optional)
- Standard deviation of data noise
NOTE
- Properties of the ocean layer are fixed during the inversion (Vp: 1.5 km/s, Vs: NaN, rho: 1.5 g/cm^3, thickness: given).
- Density of each layer is calculated from P-wave velocity using the empirical relationship by Brocher (2005):
