obspy.taup.velocity_layer.evaluate_velocity_at

evaluate_velocity_at(layer, depth, prop)

Evaluate material properties at some depth in a velocity layer.

evaluate_velocity_at_top(), evaluate_velocity_at_bottom()

Parameters

• layer (ndarray, dtype = VelocityLayer) – The velocity layer to use for evaluation.

• depth (float) – The depth at which the material property should be evaluated. Must be within the bounds of the layer or results will be undefined.

• 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)
