Abstract-In this paper, regional P-wave upper mantle structure is investigated using slant-stack velocity analysis of short-period earthquake data recorded at station MAJO (Matsushiro, Japan). Shallow earthquakes from [1980][1981][1982][1983][1984][1985][1986] within 35° of MAJO are used to construct a common receiver gather. Processing of the wavefie1d data includes focal depth and static time corrections, as well as deterministic deconvolution, in order to equalize pulse shapes and align wavelets on the first arrivals. The processed wavefield data are slant stacked and iteratively downward continued to obtain a regional upper mantle velocity model. The model includes a low velocity rone between 107 and 220 km. Beneath the L VZ, the velocity increases smoothly down to the discontinuity at 40 I km. In the transition zone, the velocity model again increases linearly, although there is some suggestion of further complexity in the downward continued wavefield data. At the base of the transition zone, a second velocity discontinuity occurs at 660 km, with a linear velocity gradient below. In addition to slant-stack analysis, travel times and synthetic seismograms are computed and compared with the processed and unprocessed wavefield data.
