The refined Moho depth map in the Carpathian-Pannonian region
Contributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2018 We present a new digital Moho depth map of the Carpathian-Pannonian region. The map was produced by compiling Moho discontinuity depth data, which were obtained by interpretation of seismic measurements taking into account the results of 2-D and 3-D ...

Moho depth of the British Isles: a probabilistic perspective [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 2020 SUMMARYWe present a new Moho depth model of the British Isles and surrounding areas from the most up-to-date compilation of Moho depth estimates obtained from refraction, reflection and receiver function data. We use a probabilistic, trans-dimensional and hierarchical approach for the surface reconstruction of Moho topography.
