Abstract

A bootstrap method is developed to estimate errors associated with inverting SKS waveforms for shear-wave splitting parameters. Although presented for shear-wave splitting inversions, this method is suitable for any waveform inversion procedure. Since seismic data have correlated errors, the bootstrap method was modified for stationary bandlimited time series. This modified bootstrap method was applied to shear-wave splitting measurements from over 60 pairs of horizontal seismograms. By using this bootstrap method, it is possible to distinguish among data with no apparent splitting, data with splitting, and noisy data. -from Authors
