It is linked to the paper by Latallerie et al., in prep, which follows one from the synthetic tomography paper (Latallerie et al., 2025, Seismica), which both provide more information. The code repository for the finite-frequency SOLA tomography can be found at Gitlab: https://gitlab.com/FranckLatallerie/sola_ffsw.git The dataset consists of Rayleigh wave phase delays (dispersion) measured on vertical component seismograms for earthquake-receiver pairs across the Pacific hemisphere. Phase delays are measured using synthetic reference seismogram computed with normal-mode summation using the MINEOS software (e.g. Masters et al., 2011) in the radial reference model stw105 (Kustowski et al., 2008). Observed seismograms were downloaded from the Earthscope (formerly IRIS) Data Management Center (IRIS DMC, 2012). All network and stations used are listed in the Acknowledgements of the README file. The model represents the vertically polarised shear wave velocity (Vsv) 3D structure of the upper mantle in the Pacific. It is accompanied by full 3D resolution and uncertainty. The 3D tomographic grid is made of voxels of size 2 by 2 degrees laterally, and 25 km vertically, spanning the whole sphere, starting at the surface down to ~400km depth. In the files, the longitude is the fastest varying coordinate, then latitude, followed by radius. The midpoints of the voxels range between 1 and 359 for longitude and between 89 (north) to -89 (south) for latitude, both in steps of 2 degrees, while radius changes from 6358.5 to 5983.5 km inclusive, in steps of 25 km.

The first 5 Slepians are used (Slepian 1978). A datum is the average of measurements over the 5 tapers, and while the standard deviation represents the uncertainty. The tomographic model is developed by applying the SOLA inverse method (Zaroli 2016) to the data using finite-frequency theory (Zhou 2009).
