F-mode sensitivity kernels for flows

Abstract

We compute f-mode sensitivity kernels for flows. Using a two-dimensional model, the scattered wavefield is calculated in the first Born approximation. We test the correctness of the kernels by comparing an exact solution (constant flow), a solution linearized in the flow, and the total integral of the kernel. In practice, the linear approximation is acceptable for flows as large as about 400 m/s.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures. Proceedings of SOHO18/GONG 2006/HELAS I.
