Abstract

Summary

Receiver functions have a wealth of crustal information and are useful to study the lithosphere. They require a powerful impulsive source like earthquakes and must be a teleseismic event from the receiver station. Such requirements does not always guarantee a good azimuthal coverage from the station which is essential to get good accurate results. Seismic interferometry is used to generate virtual impulsive sources of energy and synthesize synthetic receiver functions which provides additional azimuthal coverage. Such receiver functions can be stacked with other receiver functions having the same back azimuthal characteristics to obtain better crustal information.
