Abstract

The research in seismic ambient noise as a tool for geophysical studies must primarily rely on the space-time characteristics of the noise itself. What is important in this research is to characterize the distribution of noise sources both over frequency and in energy content. The present review considers the main mechanisms for the generation of microseisms, including primary and secondary microseisms (0.05–0.3 Hz), low frequency oscillations (0.2–50 mHz), high frequency oscillations (2–60 Hz), and lake-generated microseisms (0.5–2 Hz). We also describe the most popular procedures in use for the processing and analysis of continuous seismic ambient noise arrivals; we demonstrate a wide range of geophysical problems based on recordings of microseismic ground motion.
