The crustal thickness of West Antarctica [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2014 P‐to‐S receiver functions (PRFs) from the Polar Earth Observing Network (POLENET) GPS and seismic leg of POLENET spanning West Antarctica and the Transantarctic Mountains deployment of seismographic stations provide new estimates of crustal thickness across West Antarctica, including the West Antarctic Rift System (WARS), Marie Byrd Land (MBL) dome ...

Crustal thickness variations in northern Morocco [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2012 During the TopoIberia experiment, a total of 26 seismic broadband stations were recording in northern Morocco, providing for the first time extended regional coverage for investigating structure and seismotectonics of the southern branch of the Betic‐Rif arc, its foreland, and the Atlas domain.

Variation in thermal structure with crustal thickness for the crust beneath the Peninsular Malaysia
Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2023 We present a regional thermal structure as well as a new crustal thickness model beneath the Peninsular Malaysia and the surrounding regions. Curie point depth estimates for the entire area range between ∼ 17 – 46 km with a mean of 29 km.

Deformation and exhumation in thick continental crusts induced by valley incision of elevated plateaux [PDF]
Solid EarthSurface processes such as erosion and sedimentation play a critical role in crustal deformation, particularly in actively deforming orogenic belts. While these processes have been extensively studied in large-scale erosive and tectonically active regions,

Qinghai-Tibet Plateau crustal thickness derived from EGM2008 and CRSUT2.0
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2014 Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the most complex region for crustal thickness inversion, while high-resolution earth gravity model (EGM) makes it possible to obtain high precision gravity anomaly, which is a key parameter to depict the Earth’s inner structure ...

Crustal thickness beneath Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from spectra of SH waves at station RDJ [PDF]
Geofísica Internacional, 2006 Amplitude and phase spectra of long period analog S wave records were used to estimate crustal thickness under Rio de Janeiro seismic station. Earthquakes with shallow focal depths (10-33 km) and epicentral distances varying from 83 to 88 degrees ...

Satellite magnetic anomalies of the Antarctic crust
Annals of Geophysics, 2000 Spatially and temporally static crustal magnetic anomalies are contaminated by static core field effects above spherical harmonic degree 12 and dynamic, large-amplitude external fields.
