Moho topography, ranges and folds of Tibet by analysis of global gravity models and GOCE data
The determination of the crustal structure is essential in geophysics, as it gives insight into the geohistory, tectonic environment, geohazard mitigation, etc. Here we present the latest advance on three-dimensional modeling representing the Tibetan Mohorovičić discontinuity (topography and ranges) and its deformation (fold), revealed by analyzing gravity data from GOCE mission. Our study show...
متن کاملModel Free Gravimetric Detection
In recent work [1], we introduced a new, linear-programming based method, for detecting underground features based on gravity measurements. The current paper takes this method one important step further, in that it makes it work under realistic conditions, where most of the physical characteristics of the environment are not known. In particular, the ADCS algorithm we introduce works when the f...
متن کاملSeismic imaging of the downwelling Indian lithosphere beneath central Tibet.
A tomographic image of the upper mantle beneath central Tibet from INDEPTH data has revealed a subvertical high-velocity zone from approximately 100- to approximately 400-kilometers depth, located approximately south of the Bangong-Nujiang Suture. We interpret this zone to be downwelling Indian mantle lithosphere. This additional lithosphere would account for the total amount of shortening in t...
متن کاملRetrieval of Moho-reflected shear wave arrivals from ambient seismic noise
S U M M A R Y Theoretical studies on ambient seismic noise (ASN) predict that complete Green’s function between seismic stations can be retrieved from cross correlation. However, only fundamental mode surface waves emerge in most studies involving real data. Here we show that Mohoreflected body wave (SmS) and its multiples can be identified with ASN for station pairs near their critical distanc...
متن کاملShort Note Seismic Anisotropy from SKS Splitting beneath Northeastern Tibet
The northeastern boundary of the Tibetan high plateau is marked by a 2 km topographic drop and a coincident rapid change in crustal thickness. Surface tectonics are dominated by the Kunlun strike-slip fault system and adjacent Kunlun concealed thrust. The main objective of the current study is to map lateral variations of seismic anisotropy parameters in this region along the linear INDEPTH IV ...
