Result of the first arrival picking using the AIC method. (a) A typical MS signal; (b) scaling figure from red part of (a) and two vertical lines show the first arrival time (onset time) and terminal time (offset time); (c) local eigenvalue of AIC method; and (d) global eigenvalue in the whole period.
