We have reviewed how the density values are calculated in our tomography improved velocity models. We have determined that CVM-S4.26 calculated density from model Vs, and CCA06 provides density values in a data file. We reviewed algorithms to confirm that the same algorith is used to calculated density for both CVM-S4.6 and CCA06.

Compare Model Density to Formula Density

If model uses the formula, we'd expect values to fall on a diagonal line in these plots.

CCA Density (rho) at Depth 1000m (Density in g/cm^3)
CVM-S4.26 Density (rho) at Depth 1000m (Density in g/cm^3)
Cencal Density (rho) at Depth 1000m

Density Formula used in CVM-S4.26 and CCA06


#
# * Calculates the density based off of Vs. Based on Nafe-Drake scaling relationship.
# *
# * @param vs The Vs value off which to scale.
# * @return Density, in g/m^3.
