Arrival-time residuals and hypocentre mislocation

Abstract

It is shown that the arrival-time residuals and hypocentre mislocation are two mutually independent consequences of the inaccurate seismic model and inaccurately measured arrival times. The minimum residuals resulting from the kinematic hypocentre determination contain no information on the accuracy in determining the hypocentre position.
