Moho topography of the Tibetan Plateau using multi-scale gravity analysis and its tectonic implications

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2017
Abstract Determining the Moho topography of the Tibetan Plateau is crucial to understand the tectonic development. Over the past decades, seismic explorations have obtained profound results about the Moho topography, except in regions where seismic station coverage is poor, especially in the central and western Tibetan Plateau. In comparison, gravity

Crust–mantle transition and Moho model for Iceland and surroundings from seismic, topography, and gravity data

Tectonophysics, 2005
An increasing data set exists on the nature and thickness of the Iceland crust. This paper relates topography, i.e., elevation and bathymetry (TOP), Bouguer gravity anomalies (BA) and Moho depths to each other to assess the consequences of the “thick crust model” for Iceland in the context of the North Atlantic.

Effects of 2D Random Velocity Heterogeneities in the Mantle Lid and Moho Topography on Pn Geometric Spreading

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2011
Pn-wave energy refracts through the uppermost mantle, with the first seismic wave arrival at distances of ∼200 to ∼1500 km from crustal sources. The Pn phase provides important constraints on source type, location, and magnitude, but its propagation is complicated by frequency-dependent sensitivity to the Earth's sphericity and lithospheric velocity ...

Constraints on crustal structure and complex Moho topography beneath Piñon Flat, California, from teleseismic receiver functions

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1996
Abstract We use teleseismic P waves recorded at Piñon Flat Observatory (PFO) to constrain the three-dimensional crustal and upper-mantle velocity structure beneath the station. By forward modeling radial receiver function waveforms, we construct a one-dimensional crustal model that includes a significant shear-velocity inversion at 9 km ...

Moho topography and lower crustal wide-angle reflectivity around the TESZ in southern Scandinavia and northeastern Europe

Tectonophysics, 2002
Abstract The Moho topography is strongly undulating in southern Scandinavia and northeastern Europe. A map of the depth to Moho shows similarities between the areas of the Teisseyre–Tornquist Zone (TTZ) in Poland and the Fennoscandian Border Zone (FBZ), which is partly coinciding with the Sorgenfrei–Tornquist Zone (STZ) in Denmark.

P-wave tomography of crust and upper mantle under Southern California: Influence of topography of Moho discontinuity

Acta Seismologica Sinica, 2003
We use 146 422 P-wave arrival times from 6 347 local earthquakes recorded by the Southern California Seismic Network to determine a detailed three-dimensional P-wave velocity structure at 0–35 km depth. We have taken into account the Moho depth variations, which were obtained by seismological methods.
