California-Nevada Adjoint Simulations adjoint waveform tomography model
This model describes radially anisotropic P- and S-wave speeds for California and Nevada based on publicly available broadband data. CANVAS was determined by optimizing the fit between observed and synthetic data for moderate-magnitude (Mw 4.5-6.5) earthquakes that occurred within its domain. CANVAS effectively predicts waveform fits down to minimum periods of 12 seconds.
This package is intended to be installed as part of the UCVM framework, version 25.7 or higher.
The library ./lib/libcanvas.a may be statically linked into any user application. Also, if your system supports dynamic linking, you will also have a ./lib/libcanvas.so file that can be used for dynamic linking. The header file defining the API is located in ./include/canvas.h.
If you would like to contact the authors regarding this software, please e-mail software@scec.org. Note this e-mail address should be used for questions regarding the software itself (e.g. how do I link the library properly?). Questions regarding the model's science (e.g. on what paper is the CANVAS based?) should be directed to the model's authors, located in the AUTHORS file.
