متن کاملCrust and upper mantle of Kamchatka from teleseismic receiver functions
Teleseismic receiver functions (RFs) from a yearlong broadband seismological experiment in Kamchatka reveal regional variations in the Moho, anisotropy in the supra-slab mantle wedge, and, along the eastern coast, Ps converted phases from the steeply dipping slab. We analyze both radialand transverse-component RFs in bin-averaged epicentral and backazimuthal sweeps, in order to detect Ps moveou...
متن کاملClockwise Rotation of Upper-Mantle Strain and Crust-Mantle Coupling Beneath the Eastern Syntaxis Tibet
AB: We performed shear-wave splitting of core phases using a subset of 33 selected events within an array composed of 48 broadband stations that spans a 650x350 km area crossing the Lhasa and the southern part of the Qiangtang terranes. Our results reveal the presence of azimuthal anisotropy with small-to-moderate delay times (0.5-1.4s). The consistency of the splitting parameters with respect ...
متن کاملInteraction of Cocos and Rivera plates with the upper-mantle transition zone underneath central Mexico
S U M M A R Y Receiver functions (RFs) from 224 permanent and temporary stations in central and southern Mexico were used to characterize the upper-mantle transition zone in that region. Discontinuities at 410 and 660 km depth are both deeper compared to iasp91, which reflects a slow velocity anomaly in the upper mantle. They show topography on the interfaces that is consistent with the interac...
متن کاملCrust and upper mantle discontinuity structure beneath eastern North America
[1] Crust and mantle discontinuities across the eastern margin of the North American craton were imaged using P to S converted phase receiver functions recorded by the Missouri to Massachusetts Broadband Seismometer Experiment. Crustal structure constrained by modeling Moho conversions and reverberations shows a variation of Moho depth from a minimum of 30 km near the Atlantic coast to depths o...
