Shear-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 کاملStructure of the crust beneath the southeastern Tibetan Plateau from teleseismic receiver functions
Southeastern Tibet marks the site of presumed clockwise rotation of the crust due to the India–Eurasian collision and abutment against the stable Sichuan basin and South China block. Knowing the structure of the crust is a key to better understanding of crustal deformation and seismicity in this region. Here, we analyze recordings of teleseismic earthquakes from 25 temporary broadband seismic s...
متن کاملMantle melting beneath the Tibetan Plateau: Experimental constraints on ultrapotassic magmatism
[1] Phase equilibrium experiments on primitive Miocene olivine leucitite (Bb-107) from the Qiangtang terrane of the Tibetan Plateau were performed from 1.0 to 2.2 GPa and 1270 to 1440 C. The composition is multiply saturated with olivine and clinopyroxene from 1.2 to 2.2 GPa and 1340 C under nominally anhydrous conditions. Phase assemblages in the experiments have been used to model the effects...
متن کاملBlending Satellite Observed, Model Simulated, and in Situ Measured Soil Moisture over Tibetan Plateau
The inter-comparison of different soil moisture (SM) products over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) reveals the inconsistency among different SM products, when compared to in situ measurement. It highlights the need to constrain the model simulated SM with the in situ measured data climatology. In this study, the in situ soil moisture networks, combined with the classification of climate zones over the...
