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

From these plots, we conclude that CCA and CVM-S4.26 use the same density formula, scaled from Vs.

We were told CVM-H uses a Vp-based scaling relationship to give a density value based on nafe_drake. We plot density values for selected points extracted from cvm-s4.26, cca06, and cencal.

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
