Summary
We perform iterative inversion of long-period seismic waveform data to determine simultaneously the 3-D structure of the upper and uppermost lower mantle and earthquake source parameters. We perform direct inversion of the observed data using the methods of Geller & Hara (1993) and Hara (1997), thus intermediate parameters such as ‘splitting functions’ are not used. We analyse data in the period bands 178-185, 282-299 and 347-376 s using the Direct Solution Method (DSM) to compute synthetic seismograms and their partial derivatives. A wide range of modal coupling is considered in these computations. We conduct numerical experiments that show that neglecting toroidal-spheroidal coupling can significantly bias estimates of 3-D Earth structure for the period band 282-299 s; note that previous studies for this band generally did not consider such coupling. A numerical experiment for the period band 347-376 s suggests that our inversion approach can extract more information on odd angular order structure for the period band 347-376 s than previous techniques.
