Summary: The study introduces an alternative method called the two-station C-2 method, which uses a single station as a virtual source to retrieve surface wave phase velocities between asynchronous stations. Results show that this method can obtain reliable phase velocity measurements and can significantly improve ray path coverage and resolution in ambient noise tomography for areas between asynchronous seismic arrays.

Summary: In this paper, the analysis of passive seismic noise recorded around the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua using a dense 2-D network of autonomous seismic nodes is presented. The ambient noise is characterized and cross-correlation analysis is performed to retrieve virtual source gathers. Traveltimes are extracted and Eikonal tomography is run to retrieve phase velocity maps and azimuthal anisotropy. The results obtained from active and passive methods are compared and discussed, and a strategy for the integration of passive and active information is proposed. The joint analysis improves the accuracy of the shear wave velocity model at depth.

Summary: Global variations in the propagation of surface waves provide unique constraints on the source properties and structure of the Earth's mantle. This study aims to construct a reference data set of multimode dispersion measurements by reconciling large and diverse catalogues of surface wave dispersion. The study finds that the measurements of fundamental-mode dispersion are internally consistent, but the agreement deteriorates for overtones.

Summary: Surface waves are seismic waves that propagate on the Earth's surface and their depth ranges depend on frequency. By estimating the dispersion characteristics of these waves, the velocity structure beneath the surface can be inferred. Researchers have developed an inversion scheme that utilizes the scalar wave equation to estimate surface wave dispersion and reconstruct the wavefield continuously.

Summary: Seismic attenuation is important for obtaining accurate estimates of Earth's temperature and composition. Using whole Earth oscillations or normal modes can help reduce the effects of scattering and focusing and improve the measurement of attenuation. Through simulations and testing, it has been found that 3-D variations in attenuation can be successfully recovered.

Summary: A seismic investigation on Saturn's moon Enceladus was conducted to determine the thickness of the ice shell and variations in its mean thickness. By recovering phase and group velocities, and studying the frequency content of surface waves, the ice shell of Enceladus was modeled with uniform thicknesses and ice topography. Different approaches were explored to recover the mean ice shell thickness.

Summary: We propose a novel approach for imaging subsurface lateral heterogeneities using six-component ambient seismic noise data. This method uses the cross-correlation functions (CCFs) of the six-component data to derive surface wave dispersion curves. Unlike traditional array-based methods, our approach does not rely on the assumption of a horizontally layered model and can accurately image small-scale subsurface anomalies.

Summary: Ambient noise surface wave methods are valuable for determining near-surface shear wave velocities in urban areas, with higher mode information being important for dispersion curve inversion. The frequency-Bessel transform method is effective for multimode surface wave extraction, but may be affected by 'crossed' artefacts at high frequencies. The proposed modified F-J transform method, using the Hankel function, improves the accuracy of Rayleigh wave multimode dispersion measurements by avoiding these artefacts.

Summary: Limiting the number of valid nodes around a reference ray can greatly reduce the calculation time of the shortest-path method. The modified calculation method shows small average traveltime and ray path differences in velocity models. Improved travel time and ray path results can be achieved through iterative calculations and utilizing more neighbor nodes.

Summary: This study investigates the surface-wave propagations at the interface between a fluid layer and a double-porosity medium with cracks. The Biot-Rayleigh model is generalized to include penny-shaped cracks, and the role of mesoscopic local fluid flow (LFF) is considered. Dispersion equations for surface waves are derived, and numerical iterations are used to obtain phase velocity and attenuation. Different cases are analyzed for zero and infinite thickness of the fluid layer. The study confirms the effects of LFF at low frequencies and the impact of boundary conditions at high frequencies. The crack density affects the level of attenuation, while the aspect ratio affects the location of the relaxation peak.

Summary: The eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano in January 2022 was one of the largest recorded volcanic explosions. The eruption generated a wide range of atmospheric wave phenomena and showed unusual coupling with the oceans and solid Earth. Comparisons with the Pinatubo eruption in 1991 revealed similar mode excitations, but the amplitude was significantly greater in the Hunga Tonga eruption. The observations provide insights into the excitation and propagation of acoustic modes in the atmosphere and solid Earth.

Summary: This study conducted a multi-objective optimal design of stirring tanks using numerical simulation, surrogate model, NSGA-II, Entropy Weighting Method, and Analytic Hierarchical Process. The complex and time-consuming traditional design method was addressed to improve design efficiency. The accuracy of the simulation results was validated using computational fluid dynamics and Particle Image Velocimetry. The key parameters were predicted using a Kriging model established based on experimental designs using the Latin Hypercube method. The optimal solution obtained through NSGA-II optimization algorithm showed improved suspension uniformity by 0.7% and reduced power consumption by 48.3% compared to the initial design, as determined by the Analytic Hierarchy Process and Entropy Weighting Method.

Summary: Grotto rock structure detection is crucial for the protection and restoration of grottoes. Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is commonly used for this purpose. However, the traditional ERT measurements face challenges in terms of accuracy and resolution in cliff regions. To address this, a new BSC-ERT scheme is proposed, which combines borehole-to-surface ERT and surface-to-cliff ERT using the AM-BN array configuration. Numerical experiments show that this combination yields better imaging effects and a more reasonable detection range, making it recommended for future work. It is also demonstrated that the symmetric effect generated in the AM-BN array in the BS-ERT scheme can be suppressed with the combination of the SC-ERT scheme.

Summary: The Moon-based ground-penetrating radar (GPR) onboard the Chang'E-4 (CE-4) Yutu-2 rover has deployed on the Moon's far side, providing an unprecedented opportunity to study the shallow surface geological process and the history of the volcanic eruption of the Moon. The high-frequency radar observed a buried lens structure similar to 27 m below the lunar surface, interpreted as paleoregolith by previous studies. Our quantitative analysis of the dielectric properties reveals that the buried lens structure is likely a basalt flow representing the latest volcanic eruption on the Moon, possibly from the Eratosthenian-aged volcano that occurred approximately 2.5-2.2 billion years ago.

Summary: Due to environmental variations and data acquisition inconsistencies, complex near-surface seismograms often have low SNR. This poses challenges for accurate first arrival identification in wave-equation traveltime inversion. In this article, an elastic WT inversion algorithm based on the autoencoder method (AEWT) is proposed to overcome these challenges. The AEWT method automatically extracts intrinsic features of refractions and provides more reliable and stable P-velocity tomograms.

Summary: In this article, a time-lapse GPR data full-waveform inversion (FWI) method is proposed to effectively monitor the spatial distribution of small-scale fluid transport and estimate SWC with improved accuracy. The method combines velocity spectral analysis and the structural similarity index (SSIM) to construct a permittivity model and introduces gradient normalization to balance the convergence rate of the permittivity and conductivity parameters during the inversion process. The proposed method is validated using typical GPR field data, and the estimated error in SWC is found to be less than 5%. The time-lapse GPR data processing protocol provides a quantitative means for monitoring small-scale fluid infiltration.
