PLOTGRN uses the modes to produces plots of the amplitude of the Green's function, G(k) corresponding to a particular source/receiver combination. The Green's function is plotted as a function of horizontal wavenumber, k.

GMIN, GMAX, GINC, GAXL (cm) (1) - SOURCE/RECEIVER DEPTHS Syntax: SD RD Description: SD: Source depth (m). RD: Receiver depth (m). (2) - SAMPLING INFORMATION Syntax: NKPTS ALPHA Description: NKPTS: Number of points in k-space for evaluating the kernel. ALPHA: Stabilizing attenuation (1/m). Since G(k) has singularities on the real k-axis, it is evaluated on a slice displaced into the complex plane a distance i ALPHA. (3) - AXIS INFO Syntax: KMIN KMAX KINC KAXL GMIN GMAX GINC GAXL Description: KMIN: k-minimum (1/m). KMAX: k-maximum (1/m). KINC: k-interval for tick marks (1/m). KAXL: k-axis length ( cm). GMIN: G-minimum. GMAX: G-maximum. GINC: G-interval for tick marks. GAXL: G-axis length ( cm). If GMAX is set to zero, the program will automatically compute a value.
