Moho depth variation in southern California from teleseismic receiver functions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2000
The number of broadband three‐component seismic stations in southern California has more than tripled recently. In this study we use the teleseismic receiver function technique to determine the crustal thicknesses and Vp/Vs ratios for these stations and map out the lateral variation of Moho depth under southern California.

Moho depths beneath the European Alps: a homogeneously processed map and receiver functions database [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2023
We use seismic waveform data from the AlpArray Seismic Network and three other temporary seismic networks, to perform receiver function (RF) calculations and time-to-depth migration to update the knowledge of the Moho discontinuity beneath the broader ...

Geometry and seismic properties of the subducting Cocos plate in central Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The geometry and properties of the interface of the Cocos plate beneath central Mexico are determined from the receiver functions (RFs) utilizing data from the Meso America Subduction Experiment (MASE).

Fully nonlinear inversion of fundamental mode surface waves for a global crustal model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We use neural networks to find 1-dimensional marginal probability density functions (pdfs) of global crustal parameters. The information content of the full posterior and prior pdfs can quantify the extent to which a parameter is constrained by the data.

Moho depth of the European Plate from teleseismic receiver functions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Seismology, 2011
Crustal structure and the Moho depth are exceptionally well known beneath Europe. The first digital, high-resolution map of the Moho depth for the whole European Plate was compiled in 2007 and recently published in Geophysical Journal International. In the past few years, considerable developments have taken place in the receiver function techniques ...

Highly efficient Bayesian joint inversion for receiver-based data and its application to lithospheric structure beneath the southern Korean Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
With the deployment of extensive seismic arrays, systematic and efficient parameter and uncertainty estimation is of increasing importance and can provide reliable, regional models for crustal and upper-mantle structure.We present an efficient Bayesian ...

Moho Depth Derived from Gravity Data in the Taiwan Strait Area

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2010
We have constructed are gional Bouguer gravity anomaly map using marine and land data from Tai wan and the Chinese province of Fuchien, as well as SEASAT altimetry-de rived gravity data for the Tai wan Strait and its surrounding area.

Combined Gravimetric-Seismic Moho Model of Tibet

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
Substantial progress has been achieved over the last four decades to better understand a deep structure in the Himalayas and Tibet. Nevertheless, the remoteness of this part of the world still considerably limits the use of seismic data.

Moho depth and tectonic implications of the western United States: insights from gravity data interpretation

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2022
In this research, we figure out the lithospheric structures of the western U.S. and assess its tectonic implications with a high resolution using dense gravity data.

Seismological evidence for crustal-scale thrusting in the Zagros mountain belt (Iran) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
International audienceCrustal receiver functions computed from the records of 45 temporary seismological stations installed on a 620-km long profile across central Zagros provide the first direct evidence for crustal thickening in this mountain belt. Due
