Synthetic and real dispersion measurements for paths across the Pacific, consists of 2 datasets; SS3DPacific_new - This is a data set of surface-wave dispersion measurements. The dispersion is measured between a synthetic reference seismogram (computed with normal-mode summation using the MINEOS software in the radial model stw105 from Kustowski et al., 2008), and a real observed seismogram. This data set is used by Latallerie et al. (2024) to build a Vs model of the Pacific upper-mantle with full 3D resolution and uncertainty using SOLA inversion (Zaroli 2016) and finite-frequency theory (Zhou 2009). Data are for a set of source-receiver pairs for frequencies ranging from 6 to 21 mHz, every 1mHz. The measurement algorithm uses the multi-taper technique (Thompson 1982). The first 5 Slepians are used (Slepian 1978). A datum is the average of measurements over these tapers, and the uncertainty is the standard deviation. SS3DPacificSyn_new - This is a data set of surface-wave dispersion measurements. The dispersion is measured between a synthetic reference seismogram (computed with normal-mode summation using the MINEOS software in the radial model stw105 from Kustowski et al., 2008), and a synthetic seismogram computed using the spectral element method software Specfem in the 3D model S362ANI from Kustowski etl al. (2018). This data set is used by Latallerie et al. (2024) in a synthetic tomography study to retrieve the Vs structure of the input 3D model S362ANI in the Pacific upper-mantle with full 3D resolution and uncertainty using SOLA inversion (Zaroli 2016) and finite-frequency theory (Zhou 2009).

This repository contains data and inversion results for the SOLA finite-frequency tomography of the Pacific upper-mantle in a synthetic setup. It is related to the paper by Latallerie et al., 2025 in Seismica and more information can be found in this publication. The code repository for the finite-frequency SOLA tomography can be found at Gitlab: https://gitlab.com/FranckLatallerie/sola_ffsw.git The dataset consists of Rayleigh wave phase delays (dispersion) measured on vertical component seismograms for earthquake-receiver pairs across the Pacific hemisphere. Synthetic phase delays are measured on synthetic reference seismogram computed with normal-mode summation using the MINEOS software (e.g. Masters et al., 2011) in the radial reference model stw105 (Kustowski et al., 2008). “Observed” seismograms are synthetic waveforms computed in the 3D model S362ANI (Kustowski et al., 2008), using the SEM solver SPECFEM3DGlobe. These synthetic waveforms have been provided by the GlobalShakeMovie project (Tromp et al., 2010) and were downloaded from the Earthscope (formerly IRIS) Data Management Center (IRIS DMC, 2012) using the network code SY and channel code MXZ. All network and stations used are listed in the Acknowledgements of the accompanying paper. The model represents the vertically polarised shear wave velocity (Vsv) 3D structure of the upper mantle in the Pacific. It is accompanied with full 3D resolution and uncertainty. The 3D tomographic grid is made of voxels of size 2 by 2 degrees laterally, and 25 km vertically, spanning the whole sphere, starting at the surface down to ~400km depth. In the files, the longitude is the fastest varying coordinate, then latitude, followed by radius. The midpoints of the voxels range between 1 and 359 for longitude and between 89 (north) to -89 (south) for latitude, both in steps of 2 degrees, while radius changes from 6358.5 to 5983.5 km inclusive, in steps of 25 km.
