Some studies on the computation and interpretation of seismic interface waves and modes in Earth’s mantle

I discuss ways in which seismic data can be used to constrain the elastic parameters, density, mineralogy, and rheology of planetary interiors, focusing on interface waves and modes in Earth’s mantle. The thesis consists of two parts. In the first part, I characterise the lithospheric mantle in s...
