the crustal structure beneath the northwest of the zagros (kermanshah region) from teleseismic receiver functions
in this study, we used teleseismic data which was recorded by 5 stations (dhr, ghg, kom, lin and vis) of the kermanshah seismic network from 2003 to 2007 with mb?5.5 and epicentral distances from 30° to 95°. the crustal structure beneath these stations was determined by the modeling of the p receiver functions. the main phases, which were observed in our final p receiver functions, are moho con...
متن کاملcrustal velocity structure of kerman region from joint inversion of receiver functions and rayleigh waves group velocity dispersion
iran is situated in one of the world's seismic regions and the possibility of destructive earthquakes in most regions of the country has given great significance to recognition of iranian seismic nature from a seismic and seismotectonic standpoint. study of the crust and upper mantle velocity structure in the iranian plateau provides better understanding of its evolution and tectonic histo...
متن کاملcrustal velocity structure beneath tehran based on teleseismic and mining explosion data recorded by tehran city seismic network (tcsn)
tehran, iran’s capital with a population of more than 10 million is located in the southern foothills of the alborz collision zone. the alborz mountain belt of northern iran results from the collision of a piece of the gondwana with eurasia in the late triassic (sengor et al., 1988). the alborz active mountain range which consists of several sedimentary and volcanic layers, with east-west trend...
متن کاملcrustal seismic velocity structure study in kope dagh using simultaneous inversion modeling
crustal velocity structure model has a significant role in truly understanding of seismicity and also in relocating earthquakes. on the other hand, it can be used for recognizing major and potential seismic sources which is very critical for seismicity and earthquake hazard assessment studies. seismic parameters simultaneous inversion modeling is one of the most prevalent methods in the study o...
متن کاملStacked P-to-S and S-to-P receiver functions determination of crustal thickness, Vp, and Vs: The H-V stacking method
H-κ stacking is a routinemethod for determining crustal thickness (H) and Vp/Vs (κ) using P-to-S (Ps) receiver functions. In this paper we show that S-to-P (Sp) receiver functions may also be used to determine crustal parameters. Sp provides independent information, complementary to Ps. We develop a method called H-V (crustal thickness-velocity) stacking where Ps and Sp receiver functions are s...
