This movie shows the propagation of an acoustic wave through a heterogeneous
velocity model in cross section, synthesized by a finite-difference solution
of the acoustic wave equation. At left is an animated GIF. If you only
see a static image, go to Netscape
and get Navigator 2.0 or better for your machine.

Above are links to the movie in two popular formats.
Clicking on one should get your browser to invoke a helper application
that will play the movie.
Set your movie player to ``Play All Frames'' for the smoothest
results.
If that doesn't happen, download the latest
QuickTime (PC and Mac) and MPEG
(
VMPEG for PC;
Sparkle for Mac) movie players
(
xanim for UNIX).
If you would like to have your browser play the movie without having to
invoke a helper application,
go to Netscape
and get Navigator 3.0 or better for your machine.
