Crustal structure and apparent tectonic underplating from receiver function analysis in South Island, New Zealand
[1] We utilize seismic converted phases on more than 700 receiver functions calculated for 42 stations in the South Island, New Zealand, to infer crustal and uppermost mantle structure. We determine the crustal thickness from direct observations of conversion from the Moho interface and infer zone of the maximum thickness being located along the axis of the Southern Alps, just east from the Alp...
متن کاملCrustal Deformation due to Atmospheric Pressure Loading in New Zealand
We investigate atmospheric pressure loading displacements in New Zealand using global and regional air-pressure data collected over a period of 50 years (1960-2009). The elastic response of the Earth to atmospheric loading is calculated by adopting mass loading Love numbers based on the parameters of the Preliminary Reference Earth Model (PREM). The ocean response to atmospheric loading is comp...
متن کاملThe Crustal Structure of Orientale and Implications for Basin
Introduction. The topography [1] and gravity [2] of the Moon are dominated by the signatures of impact basins and the mascon gravity anomalies contained within. A method of generating higher resolution crustal thickness models by utilizing the symmetry of the basins is here presented, providing a refined view of the subsurface structure of the basins, with a focus on Orientale. The crustal stru...
متن کاملEconomic Growth and the Size & Structure of Government: Implications for New Zealand
The work of Gwartney, Holcombe and Lawson (GHL, 1998) is cited in New Zealand debate to demonstrate that a larger government share of GDP is detrimental for economic growth. Their work is reassessed here. We find a number of omissions in their analysis lead to a considerable over-statement of the effect of government size on growth. More important for growth, according to other recent work, are...
متن کاملGeochemical evolution and petrogenesis of the eocene Kashmar granitoid rocks, NE Iran: implications for fractional crystallization and crustal contamination processes
Kashmar granitoids of Taknar zone, in north part of Lut block, intruded into volcanic rocks and consist of granites, granodiorites, monzodiorite and gabbrodiorites. They are composed of mainly plagioclase, alkali-feldspar, quartz, amphibole, biotite and pyroxene minerals. Harker diagram variation, including negative correlations CaO, MgO, FeO, TiO2 and V and positive correlations K2O, Rb, Ba, a...
