Long-period body wave traveltimes through the crust: implication for crustal corrections and seismic tomography

The traveltimes of P and SH waves through the crust depend strongly on wave period. At periods longer than 10-15 s, where traveltime measurements for indirect (e.g. surface reflected and core reflected) waves are typically made, the traveltimes are shorter than predicted by ray theory. Crustal corre...
