Mantle shear-wave velocity structure beneath the Hawaiian hot spot.
Defining the mantle structure that lies beneath hot spots is important for revealing their depth of origin. Three-dimensional images of shear-wave velocity beneath the Hawaiian Islands, obtained from a network of sea-floor and land seismometers, show an upper-mantle low-velocity anomaly that is elongated in the direction of the island chain and surrounded by a parabola-shaped high-velocity anom...
متن کاملThree dimensional shear wave velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle beneath China from ambient noise surface wave tomography∗
We determine the three-dimensional shear wave velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle in China using Green’s functions obtained from seismic ambient noise cross-correlation. The data we use are from the China National Seismic Network, global and regional networks and PASSCAL stations in the region. We first acquire cross-correlation seismograms between all possible station pairs. We t...
متن کاملSpectra of mantle shear wave velocity structure
We applied the stochastic method of Gudmundsson, Davies & Clayton (1990) (which was applied to ISC P-wave data) to teleseismic ISC S-wave data to obtain an independent estimate of mantle structure. We inverted the variance of S-wave traveltime residuals of bundles of rays to obtain a description of the spectrum of lateral heterogeneity as a function of depth through the mantle. The technique yi...
متن کاملAverage shear-wave velocity structure of the Kamchatka peninsula from the dispersion of surface waves
An average shear-wave velocity structure has been estimated for the path between the Kamchatka Isthmus and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski. It is obtained from the Monte Carlo inversion of the Rayleigh and Love wave group velocity dispersion curves measured using broad-band seismograms of events in Northern Kamchatka recorded by the IRIS station PET in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski. The Moho interface was ...
متن کاملShear velocity structure of central Eurasia from inversion of surface wave velocities
We present a shear velocity model of the crust and upper mantle beneath central Eurasia by simultaneous inversion of broadband group and phase velocity maps of fundamental-mode Love and Rayleigh waves. The model is parameterized in terms of velocity depth profiles on a discrete 2◦ × 2◦ grid. The model is isotropic for the crust and for the upper mantle below 220 km but, to fit simultaneously lo...
