Adjoint-state traveltime tomography : eikonal equation-based methods and application to the Anza area in southern California

Ray tracing is avoidable in seismic traveltime tomography. In this study, seismic traveltime tomography is reformulated as an eikonal equation-constrained optimization problem solved by the ray-free adjoint-state method. The resultant approach is called adjoint-state traveltime tomography. For compl...
