Petrochemical and petrophysical characterization of the lower crust and the Moho beneath the West African Craton, based on Xenoliths from Kimberlites [PDF]

open access: yes
Additional evidence to the composition of the lower crust and uppermost mantle was presented in the form of xenolith data. Xenoliths from the 2.7-Ga West African Craton indicate that the Moho beneath this shield is a chemically and physically gradational

Update Heat Flow Density Map for Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
New thermal conductivity, heat production and temperature data obtained in Portugal were used to produce a new heat flow density map. Heat flow density values in Portugal vary between 42 and 115 mW/m2 and allow the extrapolation of temperatures to depths

Seismic wide-angle study of accreted Proterozoic crust in southeastern Wyoming [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
A seismic wide-angle xperiment was conducted in southeastern Wyoming, USA to investigate the seismic character of a postulated Proterozoic magmatic arc south of the suture (Cheyenne Belt) to the Archean Wyoming Province.

Crustal Flow‐Driven Plateau Growth and Expansion Front in NE Tibet: Insights From High‐Resolution Attenuation Tomography With High‐Density ChinArray Lg Data

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract The Northeastern (NE) Tibet, as the front of plateau growth, widely absorbs northeastward extrusion, leading to significant uplift and forming a basin‐mountain tectonic framework. However, it remains unclear how the crust of NE Tibet deformed in response to the far‐field effects of the India‐Eurasia collision.

Are there superposed Mohos in the south-western Alps? New seismic data from fan-profiling reflections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
International audienceThe Moho preserves imprints of the regional geodynamic evolution of the lithosphere. As such, its detailed topography in divergence or convergence zones has a strong bearing on any geodynamic model. This is still more critical where

Moho Depth Variations in Central Italy

open access: yes, 2013
[1] Along the Italian peninsula adjoin two crustal domains, peri-Tyrrhenian and Adriatic, whose boundary is not univocal in central Italy. In this area, we attempt to map the extent of the Moho in the two terrains from variations of the travel time difference between the direct P wave and the P-to-S wave converted at the crust-mantle boundary, called ...

Ambient‐Noise Multicomponent Multimodal Dispersion Characteristics in Thick Sedimentary Basins

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Ambient noise cross‐correlations enable the extraction of multimodal surface waves, yet resolving their complex dispersion characteristics is essential for robust subsurface imaging. Using dense array data from the North China Plain, we resolve multicomponent multimodal Rayleigh and Love wave dispersion with unprecedented detail.

Three‐dimensional Moho topography in Italy: New constraints from receiver functions and controlled source seismology

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2011
In complex tectonics regions, seismological, geophysical, and geodynamic modeling require accurate definition of the Moho geometry. Various active and passive seismic experiments performed in the central Mediterranean region revealed local information on

Convergent flow in a two-layer system and mountain building [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
With the purpose of modelling the process of mountain building, we investigate the evolution of the ridge produced by the convergent motion of a system consisting of two layers of liquids that differ in density and viscosity to simulate the crust and the
