Global crustal thickness from neural network inversion of surface wave data [PDF]

open access: green, 2007
We present a neural network approach to invert surface wave data for a global model of crustal thickness with corresponding uncertainties. We model the a posteriori probability distribution of Moho depth as a mixture of Gaussians and let the various ...

Effective elastic thickness in the Central Andes. Correlation to orogenic deformation styles and lower crust high-gravity anomaly [PDF]

open access: green, 2018
Global studies have assessed the importance of elastic thickness (Te) on orogenic evolution, showing that the style and nature of upper crustal shortening are influenced by the inherited lithospheric strength. Thus, pioneer works have identified that the

Crustal thickness and support of topography on Venus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research E: Planets, 2013
The topography of a terrestrial planet can be supported by several mechanisms: (1) crustal thickness variations, (2) density variations in the crust and mantle, (3) dynamic support, and (4) lithospheric stresses. Each of these mechanisms could play a role in compensating topography on Venus, and we distinguish between these mechanisms in part by ...

THE CRUSTAL THICKNESS AND Vp/Vs RATIO IN MONGOLIA

open access: diamondГеодинамика и тектонофизика
Crustal thickness beneath Mongolia was determined using the teleseismic receiver function H-k stacking method, which employed waveform data from broadband seismic stations in Mongolia.

CRUSTAL THICKNESS VARIATIONS AND SEISMICITY OF NORTHWESTERN SOUTH AMERICA

open access: yesEarth Sciences Research Journal, 2007
Any uncompensated mass of the northern Andes Mountains is presumably under pressure to adjust within the Earth to its ideal state of isostatic equilibrium. Isostasy is the ideal state that any<br />uncompensated mass seeks to achieve in time. These

Crustal thickness and Poisson’s ratio beneath Xiangfan seismic station revealed by teleseismic receiver functions

open access: yes地震科学进展, 2021
In this study,we used high signal-to-noise ratio teleseismic wave form data with an epicenter 30°—90° and the magnitude above 5.5 (including 5.5) of Xiangfan seismic station recorded during 2015—2018 to calculate the receiver functions using the time ...

Inverting Rayleigh surface wave velocities for crustal thickness in eastern Tibet and the western Yangtze craton based on deep learning neural networks [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2019
Crustal thickness is an important factor affecting lithospheric structure and deep geodynamics. In this paper, a deep learning neural network based on a stacked sparse auto-encoder is proposed for the inversion of crustal thickness in eastern Tibet and ...

Crustal thicknesses in Fennoscandia [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1980
b As a supplement to seismic profiling surveys, crustal thicknesses have been estimated for 11 Fennoscandian seismograph stations equipped with three-component long period instruments, using the so-called spectral ratio technique of Phinney. The largest Moho depths, of the order of 45 km, were found for stations located in the north-east areas ...
