An improved P-wave velocity reference model for Costa Rica

We derive a P-wave 1D-velocity model for Costa Rica that may serve for routine high-precision earthquake location and as initial reference model for 3D seismic tomography. The velocity inversions are performed using 822 well-locatable events together with 14774 P-wave observations obtained by mergin...
