Abstract:: Gravity, magnetic and seismic data indicate that the oceanic crust is 9.7 km thick west of the Continental Borderland. The top of the mantle is about 12 km deep under the Borderland, and deepens to 27 km beneath the Peninsular Ranges of Baja California. The mantle is about 20 km...

Creator:: Macario, Ana L. G.
Abstract:: The overall objective of this study is to address questions concerning the long-term mechanical strength of the lithosphere across the equatorial margin of Brazil. The approach used in this study consists of calculating the frequency response function estimates, also called admittance, using gravity and bathymetry data. These experimental estimates are...

Creator:: Keser, Judith
Abstract:: Recently obtained airgun-sonobuoy wide-angle refraction and reflection profiles provide data to study crustal velocities and structures along the continental margin of northern California and Southern Oregon. In the thick sedimentary wedge at the base of the continental slope, as many as five distinct layers can be seismically observed, which range...
