Wind wave may be written as: where C is speed (in meters per second), g is the acceleration due to gravity, and d is the depth of the water (in meters). The period of a wave remains unchanged regardless of the depth of water through which it is moving. As deep-water waves enter the shallows and feel the bottom, however, their speed is reduced and their crests "bunch up," so their wavelength shortens. As waves travel from deep to shallow water, their shape alters (wave height increases, speed decreases, and length decreases as wave orbits become asymmetrical). This process is called shoaling.
Coda Wave Interferometry The unperturbed travel time is given by formula_8 where formula_9 is the coda wave velocity. The perturbed travel time is formula_10 where formula_11 is the velocity perturbation. Thus formula_12 . If the relative velocity perturbation is assumed constant, then formula_13 where t is the center time of the employed time window. Thus, the travel time perturbation depends on the arrival time of the coda wave, but not of the particular path followed. Coda Wave Interferometry Coda Wave Interferometry is an ultrasound technique for detection of weak and local changes in complex inhomogeneous media. Sound waves that travel through a medium
