A theoretical model of wave propagation through an inhomogeneous surface layer on the earth (modeled as a homogeneous elastic half-space) is presented by assuming a random variation of density and elastic parameters in the layer. The dispersion equation for a combination of Love and Rayleigh surface waves is derived in the form of ninth-order determinantal equation. This allows the author to describe various effects of randomness through integrals involving correlation functions between elastic parameters and density. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0904.00054].
