Characteristics of ambient seismic noise as a source for surface wave tomography (2008, methodology): “The signal window is determined using the arrival times of Rayleigh waves at the minimum and maximum periods of the chosen period band (6 to 50 s) using the global 3-D shear velocity model of Shapiro and Ritzwoller [2002]. The period dependence of SNR is determined by applying a series of narrow ban”
