Investigating the Tibetan crust through automatic S wave detection and travel-time tomography using the Hi-CLIMB seismic array

Creator:

Riddle, Evan

Abstract:

The Hi-CLIMB broadband seismic experiment (2002-2005) operated 233 stations along an 800 km long north-south line from the Himalayan foreland into the central Tibetan Plateau and in a 350x350 km sub-array within southern Tibet and central and eastern Nepal. Station spacing was approximately 8 km along the line and 50...

presented on March 20, 2015. Title: Investigating the Tibetan Crust through Automatic S Wave
Seismic wave attenuation of the crust and upper mantle in the Himalaya and South-Central Tibetan Plateau

Creator:

Monigle, Patrick W.

Abstract:

Recent geophysical and geological investigations of the Tibetan plateau have given rise to conflicting models of plateau growth and deformation, where the presence and extent of partial melt in the crust could be a determining factor. Here we investigate the attenuation structure of the crust and upper mantle, as attenuation...
