Oceanic spreading rate and crustal thickness

Marine Geophysical Researches, 1981
Examination of oceanic seismic refraction results indicates a correlation between total crustal thickness and spreading rate, with slower spreading producing thinner crust. The effect is seen at spreading rates less than about 20 mm yr−1. The crustal thickness and its dependence on spreading rate are predicted by theoretical modelling of flow and ...

A relationship between crustal thickness and mean crustal velocity

Tectonophysics, 1989
Abstract Variable parameters of the continental crust are: crustal age, heat flow, reflectivity, thickness and velocity. While heat flow and reflectivity decrease, crustal thickness increases with age. For stable crustal regions we present a correlation between crustal thickness and mean crustal velocity. The evaluation is based on more than 270 data

United States crustal thickness

Tectonophysics, 1983
The thickness of the crust, the thickness of the basal (intermediate or lower) crustal layer, and the average velocity at the top of the mantle have been mapped using all available deep-penetrating seismic-refraction profiles in the conterminous United States and surrounding border areas. These profiles are indexed to their literature data sources. The

Crustal thickness of northeast Russia

Tectonophysics, 1998
Abstract The first-order crustal structure of the Magadan region and northeast Sakha Republic (Yakutia), northeast Russia, is obtained by simultaneously inverting for origin times and travel time curves. A total of 1210 observations are used. As an average, a 37-km-thick, 5.992±0.007 km/s crust overlying an 7.961±0.015 km/s mantle provides an ...

The crustal thickness of NE Tibet and its implication for crustal shortening

Tectonophysics, 2014
Abstract The crustal deformation model for NE Tibet is key to understanding the outward growth of the plateau, especially along its northern front. This study describes receiver function images of the Moho beneath NE Tibet, as calculated from teleseismic data recorded by regional seismic networks.

Gravity-inferred crustal thickness of Greenland

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2007
Abstract Greenland's crust contains clues for understanding the dynamics of the Earth's second largest ice-sheet, as well as the Iceland hotspot over the past 100 Ma. However, our knowledge of the sub-ice crust is very limited due to the paucity of outcrops and seismic observations, particularly in central Greenland.

A Crustal Thickness Constraint for Central Pennsylvania

Seismological Research Letters, 1981
The timing and amplitude of long-period Ps conversions observed on the radial component of ground motion from a suite of teleseismic events were used to place constraints on crustal structure under the WWSSN station SCP (State College, Pennsylvania). Radial P waveforms from impulsive deep earthquakes were modeled in the time domain after corrections ...
