Figure <strong>1.</strong> (a) A horizontally polarized se<strong>is</strong>mogram recorded in the western United States from<br />
an earthquake that occurred in the southern Pacific Ocean. Below the se<strong>is</strong>mogram <strong>is</strong> a synthetic<br />
se<strong>is</strong>mogram. Numerous phases that have good matches between the synthetic and data are<br />
labelled. The large arrival at the end of the se<strong>is</strong>mogram <strong>is</strong> the Love wave that cons<strong>is</strong>ts of SSSSS<br />
and higher-order multiples of S. Part (b) shows the paths taken by the phases labelled at the<br />
top, as well as the paths of phases that interact with the core, which, although not v<strong>is</strong>ible in
