Figure 2. (a) Locations of two deep-borehole sites, SHM and FCH. The borehole array recordings from these sites are used for investigating the coherency characteristics of P waves. The data from events whose locations are shown by open triangles and open circles are used for stations SHM and FCH, respectively. (b) Locations of six borehole sites, SHM, FCH, IWT, EDZ, NRT, and ENZ. The borehole array recordings from these sites are used for investigating the coherency characteristics of SH waves. The data from events whose locations are shown by open triangles, open circles, open squares, open reverse triangles, open rhombuses, and solid circles are used for stations SHM, FCH, IWT, EDZ, NRT, and ENZ, respectively.

Figure 4. (a) Coherence estimated by using a direct SH phase and its surface reflection recorded at deep borehole. (b) Coherence estimated by using two direct SH waves recorded at deep borehole and surface (solid circles). Dotted lines indicate 95% confidence level of regression analysis.
