Resonance in double-diffusive convection likewise has many applications since interactions between the fluid layers may greatly increase the critical Rayleigh number threshold for the onset of convection, which in turn is of interest to the energy industry.

A possible solution to these problems and ambiguities can be represented by the joint acquisition and analysis of Love waves and/or the radial component of Rayleigh waves (Safani et al., 2005; Dal Moro and Ferigo, 2011; Xia et al., 2012; Dal Moro et al., 2015b, 2016, 2017a).

For determining source locations, four techniques are used: (1) beamforming of the ambient seismic wave field, (62) (2) mapping source distribution by backprojecting observed body waves based on travel time, known as the backprojection method, (63) (3) modeling cross-correlation functions between pairs of stations, and (4) polarization analysis of Rayleigh waves at a station.
