obspy.taup.velocity_layer.evaluate_velocity_at_top

evaluate_velocity_at_top(layer, prop)[source]

Evaluate material properties at top of a velocity layer.

See also

evaluate_velocity_at_bottom(), evaluate_velocity_at()

Parameters:
  • layer (ndarray, dtype = VelocityLayer) The velocity layer to use for evaluation.
  • prop (str)

    The material property to evaluate. One of:

    • p
      Compressional (P) velocity (km/s)
    • s
      Shear (S) velocity (km/s)
    • r or d
      Density (g/cm^3)
Returns:

The value of the material property requested.
Return type:

ndarray (dtype = float, shape equivalent to layer)
