Global Patterns in Cratonic Mid‐Lithospheric Discontinuities From Sp Receiver Functions
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 The goal of this study is to constrain the origins of layering in the seismic velocity structure within the cratonic mantle lithosphere (i.e. mid‐lithospheric discontinuities [MLDs]).

Estimation of Plunge Value in Single- or Multi-Layered Anisotropic Media Using Analysis of Fast Polarization Direction of Shear Waves [PDF]
Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2018 Estimation of the fast polarization direction of shear seismic waves that deviate from horizontal axis is a valuable approach to investigate the characteristics of the lower crust and uppermost mantle structures.

Deep learning for quality control of receiver functions
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Receiver function has been routinely used for studying the discontinuity structure in the crust and upper mantle. The manual quality control of receiver functions, which plays a key role in high-quality data selection and accurate structural imaging, has

Dizhen xuebao本文综合前人在青藏高原东北缘利用不同方法不同资料得到的地震各向异性结果，对该地区断裂和应力等构造特征及分层各向异性进行了分析。结果表明，青藏高原东北缘以地壳缩短增厚变形为主，部分区域存在各向异性分层或壳内韧性层。XKS （SKS，PKS和SKKS震相的统称）分裂的快波方向整体呈NW或WNW向，与上地幔物质的流动有关。地壳的快波方向表明地壳变形会受到断裂及主压应力的影响。祁连造山带和海原断裂带的分层各向异性特征揭示了上地壳与中下地壳可能存在解耦。阿拉善地块东部至鄂尔多斯地块西部可能存在壳幔解耦现象 ...

The Crust in the Pamir: Insights From Receiver Functions [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019 AbstractThe Cenozoic convergence between India and Asia has created Earth's thickest crust in the Pamir‐Tibet Plateau by extreme crustal shortening. Here we study the crustal structure of the Pamir and western Tian Shan, the adjacent margins of the Tajik, Tarim, and Ferghana Basins, and the Hindu Kush, using data collected by temporary seismic ...
