Utah FORGE: Composite 3D Seismic Velocity Model

Description

This is a composite 3D seismic velocity that was constructed from compiled information from several local studies regarding seismic velocities and structural information. This seismic velocity model is provided in NonLinLoc format (slow_len), which is readily usable in NonLinLoc software. Other model formats and versions of the model can be produced using the Python script provided with this data set. Details on how the model was created and prior velocity and structural information was used is provided in the accompanying documentation.

57 This zip file contains the 3D seismic model in NonLinLoc format and all necessary documentation. The .mod.buf and .mod.hdr files are for utilization with NonLinLoc software. The "FORGE_composite_3D.py" Python script can be run to produce the model in other formats. Refer to the included "Utah_FORGE_comp3D_velmodel_documentation.pdf" for Python script file inputs and details on how the model was constructed and from what information. https://gdr.openei.org/files/1585/Utah_FORGE_3D_seismic_velocity_model.zip
