Abstract
Numerical modeling using the semblance parameter has demonstrated high efficiency and noise immunity of emission tomography in reconstructing the spatial distribution of small seismic sources in the crust at single-component acquisition. High noise of additive (low signal/noise ratio) and parametric (lateral inhomogeneities) origin deteriorates the quality of source imaging but does not rule out the possibility to create the image. The modeling implies signals limited within a certain estimated frequency bandwidth.
