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.

Complex local Moho topography in the Western Carpathians: Indication of the ALCAPA and the European Plate contact

Tectonophysics, 2015
AbstractSeismic data from deep refraction and wide-angle reflection profiles intersecting the Western Carpathians show distinct upper-mantle Pn phases with anomalous apparent velocities identified in the first and later arrivals. Their systematic analysis indicates that such phases are present in numerous seismic sections both for in-line and off-line ...

Moho Depth Disposition of the Contiguous United States: A Multi‐Modal Data Driven Approach

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation
Precise determination of Moho depth is essential for understanding lithospheric deformation, lower crustal rheology, and crust‐mantle interactions. This study employs a Random Forest Regressor (RFR) model to predict Moho depth across the contiguous ...

Moho Fold Structure Beneath the East China Sea and Its Tectonic Implications

Remote Sensing
Moho fold structures provide critical insights into the tectonic evolution of the East China Sea. However, previous models exhibit substantial uncertainties, primarily resulting from the unaccounted gravitational effects of crustal sources and ...

Automatic 1D integrated geophysical modelling of lithospheric discontinuities: a case study from Carpathian-Pannonian Basin region

Contributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2014
Using a very fast 1D method of integrated geophysical modelling, we calculated models of the Moho discontinuity and the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary in the Carpathian-Pannonian Basin region and its surrounding tectonic units. This method is capable

Joint inversion of local, regional and teleseismic data for crustal thickness in the Eurasia-Africa plate boundary region [PDF]

, 2017
A new map for the Moho discontinuity (EAM02) in the Eurasia-Africa plate boundary region is presented. Reliable results have also been obtained for the southern and eastern Mediterranean Basin, the northern African coasts and the eastern Atlantic Ocean ...

Imaging crustal structure in South-Central Costa Rica with Receiver Functions [PDF]

, 2010
An array of broadband seismometers transecting the Talamanca Range in southern Costa Rica was operated from 2005 until 2007. In combination with data from a short‐period network near Quepos in central Costa Rica, this data is analyzed by the receiver ...

From topography to topography: Surface elevation, Moho geometry and African lithosphere dynamics

, 2014
Multi-seismic experiments acquired across the central and southern part of the Iberian Peninsula provide a new insight into the structure and nature of the lithosphere beneath these areas. Normal incidence and wide-angle seismic reflection data acquired in the area resolve the internal architecture and constrain the distribution of the physical ...

Crustal structure of the Colima rift, western Mexico: gravity models revisited [PDF]

Geofísica Internacional, 1999
Two 250 km and 280 km long gravity transects, across the southern (SCR) and central (CCR) sectors of the Colima rift are reinterpreted. Spectral analysis is used to estimate statistical depths to major interfaces.
