Crustal structure and upper mantle stratigraphy of the Arabian shield
[1] Analysis of receiver functions from an eight-station network on the Saudi Arabian shield indicates that the Moho depths vary between 35–38 km. The crust appears to be rather felsic in nature as evidenced by Poisson’s ratios of 0.25–0.27. A prominent negative phase following the Moho conversion is suggestive of a zone of velocity inversion. Indication of mantle stratification is observed ben...
متن کاملDistribution of the Crustal Magnetic Field in Sichuan-Yunnan Region, Southwest China
Based on the new and higher degree geomagnetic model NGDC-720-V3, we have investigated the spatial distribution, the altitude decay characteristics of the crustal magnetic anomaly, the contributions from different wavelength bands to the anomaly, and the relationship among the anomaly, the geological structure, and the geophysical field in Sichuan-Yunnan region of China. It is noted that the mo...
متن کاملShear-velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle beneath the Tibetan Plateau and southeastern China
S U M M A R Y This paper addresses the velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle beneath southern China with special emphasis on the Tibet region. Waveform data from 48 earthquakes as recorded on the WWSSN and GDSN are used in this detailed forward modelling study. Constraints on the upper crustal section are derived from modelling local Love waves in the time domain applying the mode-su...
متن کاملRegion-related features of crustal and upper-mantle velocity structure of the Chinese mainland detected by surface waveform modeling
Surface waveform modeling has played an important role on many continental-scale studies of upper mantle velocity structure, but it was seldom applied to the Chinese mainland study. The present study firstly analyzed surface waveform fittings for eight wave paths crossing through four different regions of the Chinese mainland (eastern, central, northern and western China), and then inverted for...
متن کامل3-dimensional upper mantle velocity structure for iranian plateau revealed by pn and sn tomography
studying crustal and upper mantel structures has been limited in the iranian plateau and there has been little work done in this field. in this paper we have a primary motive to map pn and sn velocities beneath most of the iranian plateau in order to test 3-d mantle models and to develop and test a method to produce pn and sn travel time correction surfaces that are the 3-d analogue of travel t...
