Earthquake in central Italy and velocities structure of the mantle
Геофизический журнал, 2018 A three-dimensional P-velocity model of the European mantle built on the Taylor approximation made it possible to analyze the velocity structure of the mantle under the Mediterranean and, in particular, under Central Italy, to a depth of 2500 km. It is
