Adjoint methods are a key ingredient of gradient-based full-waveform inversion schemes. While being conceptually elegant, they face the challenge massive memory requirements caused by opposite time directions forward and adjoint simulations necessity to access both wavefields simultaneously for computation sensitivity kernel. To overcome this bottleneck, we have developed lossy compression techniques that significantly reduce with only small computational overhead. Our approach is tailored...

We present a quantitative accuracy analysis of the Discontinuous Galerkin Finite-Element method for simulation seismic wave propagation on tetrahedral meshes. Several parameters are responsible results, such as chosen approximation order, spatial discretization, that is, number elements per wavelength, and distance waves due to numerical dispersion dissipation. As error norm we choose time–frequency representation envelope phase misfit seismograms assess resulting since this provides time...
Abstract During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries observational seismologists recorded primarily earthquake-induced translational wave field, while rotational motion still remains poorly observed investigated. We aim to further understand ground its relation with a special emphasis on near few wavelengths away from hypocenter, where damage related might need be considered. A broad picture of available values amplitudes their variability is obtained by gathering most published data...
Southeast Spain experiences relatively low seismicity rates, characterized by slow seismic deformation. However, historical records highlight the significant impact of moderate to large earthquakes on local communities, such as 1518 Vera (Almería) earthquake (Mw 6.4) and 2011 Lorca 5.2). Thus, events pose a considerable risk region, in spite their infrequent occurrence. Given lack comprehensive data this kind events, study contributes towards physics-based hazard model for (SE)...
