   * Gary: working on some tools for doing particle motion analysis quantitatively.  Takes seismograms and plots vector motion in 3D so you can visualize the particle motion.  Needs a GUI so you can specify certain parameters, but it's difficult to do.   * Gary: working on some tools for doing particle motion analysis quantitatively.  Takes seismograms and plots vector motion in 3D so you can visualize the particle motion.  Needs a GUI so you can specify certain parameters, but it's difficult to do.
   * Gary: what's more important to do is to take the data and try to find a model for the particle motion.  Using multi-wavelet method to get best-fit of particle motion ellipse at a given time step and in a given frequency band.  This is a useful tool for anisotropy, helps to quantify the actual particle motion in terms of a major and minor axis and look at the frequency dependence.  Can measure orientation of the ellipse relative to direction of wave propagation; will tell us how much particle motion deviates from simple models.  Can also try to quantify shear wave splitting.   * Gary: what's more important to do is to take the data and try to find a model for the particle motion.  Using multi-wavelet method to get best-fit of particle motion ellipse at a given time step and in a given frequency band.  This is a useful tool for anisotropy, helps to quantify the actual particle motion in terms of a major and minor axis and look at the frequency dependence.  Can measure orientation of the ellipse relative to direction of wave propagation; will tell us how much particle motion deviates from simple models.  Can also try to quantify shear wave splitting.
 +  * Daniel: have been working with Victor to take waveforms from a given event and find the optimal waveform to describe it.  So far we are just using time delays, nothing fancy with anisotropy or reflection, but it's working well so far.
 +  * Gary: is this just cross-correlation?
 +  * Daniel: taking the waveforms from the onset t-arrival and doing an inversion that would account for them and for free surface reflections.  We are seeing a very strong effect from free surface reflections, it might be very useful to include this in the radiometry code as well.
