Investigation of the strength and trend of seismic anisotropy beneath the Zagros collision zone
The Zagros collision zone is known as an active tectonic zone that represents the tectonic boundary between the Eurasian and Arabian plates. A popular strategy for gaining insight into the upper mantle processes is to examine the splitting of seismic shear waves and interpret them in terms of upper mantle anisotropy and deformation. Core phases SK(K)S from over 278 earthquakes (MW ≥ ...
متن کاملDeep Structure of the Northeast Tibetan Collision Zone: INDEPTH IV The Himalaya-Tibet Collision Zone
The Himalayan Mountain Belt and adjacent Tibetan Plateau (Figure 1) remain the world’s foremost natural laboratory for investigation of continental collisional tectonics. The continuing debate over how the Asian continent has responded to the embedding of the Indian subcontinent has variously revolved around concepts such as distributed shortening (e.g. Dewey and Burke, 1973), wholesale contine...
متن کاملShort Note Pn Travel-Time Tomography of the Paleo-Continental-Collision and Rifting Zone around Korea and Japan
A recent dense deployment of seismic stations in South Korea and Japan allows regional seismic imaging of the far-east Asian region that experienced continental collisions and riftings. We perform seismic imaging based on a mantlelid P-wave (Pn) travel-time tomography to exploit the tectonic imprints in the lithosphere. The average Pn velocity in the region is estimated to be 7:95 0:03 km=sec. ...
متن کاملthe role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union
پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
15 صفحه اول3-dimensional upper mantle velocity structure for iranian plateau revealed by pn and sn tomography
studying crustal and upper mantel structures has been limited in the iranian plateau and there has been little work done in this field. in this paper we have a primary motive to map pn and sn velocities beneath most of the iranian plateau in order to test 3-d mantle models and to develop and test a method to produce pn and sn travel time correction surfaces that are the 3-d analogue of travel t...
