Crustal thickness variations beneath Egypt through gravity inversion and forward modeling: linking surface thermal anomalies and Moho topography

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science
This study aims to quantify the topography of the Moho boundary, the lower crust and uppermost mantle contact of Egypt, in order to estimate the crustal thickness variation and its link to the distribution of thermal anomalies under Egypt.

Effective elastic thickness in the Central Andes. Correlation to orogenic deformation styles and lower crust high-gravity anomaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Global studies have assessed the importance of elastic thickness (Te) on orogenic evolution, showing that the style and nature of upper crustal shortening are influenced by the inherited lithospheric strength. Thus, pioneer works have identified that the

Moho Geometry Estimation Beneath the Gulf of Guinea From Satellite Gravity Data Based on a Regularized Non‐Linear Gravity Inversion

open access: yesEarth 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.

Lithospheric 3D gravity modelling using upper-mantle density constraints: Towards a characterization of the crustal configuration in the North Patagonian Massif area, Argentina [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

open access: yesHeliyon, 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

Crustal structure and rift flank uplift of the Adare Trough, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The Adare Trough, located 100 km northeast of Cape Adare, Antarctica, represents the extinct third arm of a Tertiary spreading ridge between East and West Antarctica. It is characterized by pronounced asymmetric rift flanks elevated up to over 2 km above

A global correlation of the step-wise consolidated crust-stripped gravity field quantities with the topography, bathymetry, and the CRUST 2.0 Moho boundary

open access: yesContributions 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.

Regional mapping of the crustal structure in southern California from receiver functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Lateral variations of the crustal structure in southern California are determined from receiver function (RF) studies using data from the Southern California Seismic Network broadband stations and Los Angeles Regional Seismic Experiment surveys.

Crustal structure of the Borderland-Continent Transition Zone of southern California adjacent to Los Angeles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We use data from the onshore-offshore component of Los Angeles Region Seismic Experiment (LARSE) to model the broad-scale features of the midcrust to upper mantle beneath a north-south transect that spans the continental borderland in the Los Angeles ...
