Dear Colleagues,

We would like to draw your attention to the following Seismology  
special session on seismic tomography for the fall AGU meeting  
(http://www.agu.org/meetings/fm07/).  This session has the goal of  
bringing together presentations from observational and theoretical  
seismologists who are advancing tomographic modeling at all scales  
from local to global.

Session Description

S20: Seismic Tomography: Pushing the Resolution Limits

Description: 	This session covers theoretical and observational  
advances in seismic tomography. We hope to cross-fertilize the field  
by bringing together scientists working on the full range of  
geospatial scales. Rapid theoretical and computational advances are  
being made in methods that explicitly account for finite-frequency  
effects in wave propagation, for example adjoint wavefield methods or  
Born sensitivity kernels. Applications include new measurement  
strategies for finite-frequency observables of body and surface  
waves; inversion for velocities, anisotropy, attenuation or interface  
topography; smart parametrization and regularization strategies; and  
new broadband data sets.

Conveners: Ying Zhou (Virginia Tech), Mark Panning (Princeton), Karin  
Sigloch (Princeton), Jeroen Tromp (Caltech)
