Head waves – also called refraction arrivals, lateral waves, or conical waves – have been used extensively in near-earthquake studies, geophysical prospecting, and deep-crustal seismological investigations. In the past, research was confined largely to the kinematic characteristics of the waves, but emphasis is now being given to the dynamic characteristics: amplitudes, spectra, and wave forms. In the last fifteen years, several new mathematical and computational techniques have been developed to study these waves.This is an advanced, technical book presenting a consistent theory of head waves, using methods developed in the famous Leningrad school under G.I. Petrashen and his colleagues. It proceeds from a consideration of the simplest problem of one interface to a study of the situation in which there are many interfaces (some of which may not be plane or parallel to one another) and the material between the interfaces is not necessarily homogenous. The method is used principally, though not exclusively, that of ray series in which the displacement vector is expressed in terms of an asymptotic series in inverse powers of frequency. The volume includes numerical data and an extensive bibliography.This book is intended as a text for graduate and senior undergraduate students in geophysics, and as a reference work for practising seismologists and research workers.

The special issue contains contributions presented at the international workshop Seismic waves in laterally inhomo- geneous media IV, which was held at the Castle of Trest, Czech Republic, May 22-27, 1995. The workshop, which was attended by about 100 seismologists from more than 10 countries, was devoted mainly to the current state of theoretical and computational means of study of seismic wave propagation in complex structures. The special issue can be of interest for theoretical, global and explorational seismologists. The first part contains papers dealing with the study and the use of various methods of solving forward and inverse problems in complicated structures. Among other methods, discrete-wave number method, the finite-difference method, the edge-wave supperposition method and the ray method are studied and used. Most papers contained in the second part are related to the ray method. The most important topics are two-point ray tracing, grid calculations of travel times and amplitudes and seismic wave propagation in anisotropic media.

M. BAKKER Summary- For shear waves in anisotropic media a frequency-dependent transport equation is derived, which involves coupling of both shear modes if the slowness vector points in adirection for which the associated slowness surfaces are (almost) tangent. This is achieved by averaging the Hamiltonians for both uncoupled shear modes. No assumption on weak anisotropy is made, and the shear polarisation is perpendicular to the P-wave polarisation for the actual slowness direction instead of an isotropically approximated P-wave polarisation.These are the main differences compared with the so-called zero-order quasi-isotropic approach. Key words: Anisotropy, ray tracing, shear wave. J. Introduction Reliable modelling of polarisations for shear waves in anisotropic media is relevant in the context of imaging mode-converted (OBCjOBS) data in cases where not only poSY, but also poSH conversions take place. In such situations it may be necessary to use the polarisation direction for consistent continuation of the different wave modes and for appropriate imaging.
