The effective elastic thickness of the India Plate from receiver function imaging, gravity anomalies and thermomechanical modelling [PDF]
, 2006 The range and the meaning of the effective elastic thickness (EET) in continental areas have been subject to controversy over the last two decades. Here we take advantage of the new data set from the Hi-CLIMB seismological experiment to re-estimate the ...

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

Earth and Space Science, 2023 In this work, we present a new gravimetric Moho model over the Gulf of Guinea computed from the inversion of the global gravity EIGEN‐6C4 model. The computation procedure contains a regularized non‐linear inversion algorithm.

Moho depth variation in southern California from teleseismic receiver functions [PDF]
Journal 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]
Earth 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]
, 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).

Lateral variations in the crustal structure of the Indo-Eurasian collision zone [PDF]
, 2018 We thank Michael Ritzwoller and two anonymous reviewers for constructive comments that have helped improve the manuscript. The majority of the seismic data used in this study were downloaded from IRIS DMC.

Combined Gravimetric-Seismic Moho Model of Tibet
Geosciences, 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.
