Lithospheric 3D gravity modelling using upper-mantle density constraints: Towards a characterization of the crustal configuration in the North Patagonian Massif area, Argentina [PDF]
, 2017 The North Patagonian Massif is an Argentinean plateau that has an average height of 1200 m and stands from 500 to 700 m above the neighboring areas. During Paleogene, it suffered a sudden uplift of more than 1200 m without noticeable internal deformation;

A recovered Moho model by integrated inversion of gravity and seismic depths in Iran
Heliyon, 2020 This research aims to define the depth of Moho in Iran by collocation method using gravimetric data with seismic information. The definition of the Moho in the Iranian region is of considerable importance due to the geological complexity of the area also

Subparallel thrust and normal faulting in Albania and the roles of gravitational potential energy and rheology contrasts in mountain belts [PDF]
, 2009 The active tectonics of Albania and surrounding regions, on the eastern margin of the Adriatic Sea, is characterized by subparallel thrust and normal faulting which, we suggest, is likely to be related to gravitational potential energy contrasts between ...

Moho topography in the central Andes and its geodynamic implications
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2002 P-to-S converted waves at the continental Moho together with waves multiply reflected between the Earth’s surface and the Moho have been used to estimate the Moho depth and average crustal Vp/Vs variations in the central Andes. Our analysis confirms and significantly complements the Moho depth estimates previously obtained from wide-angle seismic ...

Contributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2009 We investigate globally the correlation of the step-wise consolidated crust- stripped gravity field quantities with the topography, bathymetry, and the Moho bound- ary. Global correlations are quantified in terms of Pearson’s correlation coefficient.

Moho Depth of Northern Baja California, Mexico, From Teleseismic Receiver Functions
Earth and Space Science, 2021 We estimated Moho depths from data recorded by permanent and temporary broadband seismic stations deployed in northern Baja California, Mexico, using the receiver function technique. This region is composed of two subregions of contrasting geological and

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

Marked lateral variations in the Moho topography below the Uttarakhand Himalaya (India)
, 2022 Abstract Utilizing broadband waveform data from 52 stations, we model the detailed crustal structure below the Uttrakhand Himalaya through the Common Conversion Point (CCP) staking of radial P- receiver functions and seismic velocity tomography. We detect marked lateral variations in the Moho depths dipping toward the east (i.e.
