New Constraints on the Calabrian Arc (Central Mediterranean) Geodynamics: High‐Resolution Imaging of Lithospheric and Upper Mantle Discontinuities From P and S Receiver Functions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The Calabrian Arc subduction system (Central Mediterranean) is characterized by a deep and narrow (200 km) slab. Addressing the poorly understood link between shallow and deep mantle structures, we present the first high‐resolution mapping of crustal and upper mantle discontinuities across the Calabrian Arc and Southern Tyrrhenian basin.

Differential Craton Destruction Controlled by Fossil Structures in the Central North China Craton

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Craton evolution plays a fundamental role in stabilizing the continental lithosphere and the long‐term evolution of Earth's surface environment. The Shanxi Rift Zone (SRZ) within the North China Craton marks an ongoing craton destruction. Detailed lithospheric structure is essential to explain craton destruction.

Satellite Gravity Constraints on the Antarctic Moho and Its Potential Isostatic Adjustments

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
We investigate the impact of combining Gravity Field and Steady‐state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) satellite gravity anomaly and Bedmap2 terrain relief data to enhance Antarctic seismic Moho estimates over the satellite's coverage region south of ...

Moho Inversion by Gravity Anomalies in the South China Sea: Updates and Improved Iteration of the Parker‐Oldenburg Algorithm

Earth and Space Science, 2023
The Moho is the interface between crust and mantle, and accurate location of the Moho is important for both resource exploration and deep earth condition and structural change investigations. The theory of the traditional Parker‐Oldenburg (P‐O) method is

The Ecuadorian moho

La Granja, 2013
Como requisito previo para la consecución de imágenes tomográficas se estudian tres modelos de Moho. Para la región de Ecuador se analizan el modelo gravimétrico de Chambat-Valette, un modelo de velocidades de propagación de ondas sísmicas en tres dimensiones y un modelo de observaciones gravimétricas satelitales.

Distinct Crustal Structure Across the Alpine Fault, New Zealand: Seismic Imaging of a Through‐Going Vertical Fault Beneath Its Central Section

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Alpine Fault (Aotearoa New Zealand) is a major plate boundary transform fault, that quasi‐periodically hosts large (M7‐8) to great (M8+) earthquakes. The fault is thought to be segmented with sections rupturing both individually and in combination.

Moho Depth of Northern Baja California, Mexico, From Teleseismic Receiver Functions

Earth and Space Science, 2021
We estimated Moho depths from data recorded by permanent and temporary broadband seismic stations deployed in northern Baja California, Mexico, using the receiver function technique. This region is composed of two subregions of contrasting geological and

A Curie Point Depth Model of the Conterminous United States Derived From a Prior‐Constrained Equivalent Source Inversion

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Curie Point Depth (CPD) is a key thermal boundary in the deep lithosphere and is widely used to constrain its thermal structure. However, uncertainties in magnetization and the non‐uniqueness of inversion lead to considerable inter‐study differences.

Moho Density Contrast in Central Eurasia from GOCE Gravity Gradients

Remote Sensing, 2016
Seismic data are primarily used in studies of the Earth’s inner structure. Since large parts of the world are not yet sufficiently covered by seismic surveys, products from the Earth’s satellite observation systems have more often been used for this ...

Multiscale Analysis of Bouguer Gravity Anomalies: Unveiling the Deep Structure of Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis Faults

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis (EHS), which is located at the southeastern edge of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau, is a key region for understanding mountain‐building and subduction processes. Bouguer gravity anomalies derived from the Earth Gravitational Model 2008 free‐air anomaly data following topographic corrections, were analyzed.
