this is a method to computing synthetic seismograms: The WKBJ program was developed by Chris Chapman in the 1970's and named to honour Gregor Wentzel, Henrik A. Kramers, Marcel Louis Brillouin and Sir Harold Jeffreys. See Chapman, C.H., A new method for computing synthetic seismograms, Geophys. J. R. astr. Soc. 54: 481-518, 1978. Since Sir Harold was the closest of these four to a seismologist, the routine is also sometimes called JWKB. for more informations : http://www.geop.ubc.ca/people/gorman/wkbj.html#WKBJ
