Abstract
A computer program is developed for computation of theoretical seismograms. The program treats explosive sources in layered crustal structures and computes frequency-domain functions for the crust, mantle and instrument transfers. The product of these is Fourier-inverted to give the seismograph trace. A brief study of parameter variation is presented.Keywords
