K. D. Nelson,Wenjin Zhao,Lawrence D. Brown,J. Kuo,Jinkai Che,Xianwen Liu,Simon L. Klemperer,Yizhaq Makovsky,Rolf Meissner,James Mechie,Rainer Kind,Friedemann Wenzel,James Ni,J.

TL;DR: The results suggest that during Neogene time the underthrusting Indian crust has acted as a plunger, displacing the molten middle crust to the north while at the same time contributing to this layer by melting and ductile flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lithospheric and upper mantle structure of southern Tibet from a seismological passive source experiment
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the data from the German Depth Profiling of Tibet and the Himalayas (GEDEPTH) project to detect inclined structures penetrating the crust at the Zangbo suture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geodynamic evolution of the lithosphere and upper mantle beneath the Alboran region of the western Mediterranean: Constraints from travel time tomography

TL;DR: An edited version of this paper was published by the American Geophysical Union (AGU) as mentioned in this paper, 2000, AGU 900024, Section 5.1.1].
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence from Earthquake Data for a Partially Molten Crustal Layer in Southern Tibet
Rainer Kind,James Ni,Wenjin Zhao,Jianxin Wu,Xiaohui Yuan,Lianshe Zhao,Eric Sandvol,Chris Reese,J. Nabelek,Thomas M. Hearn +9 more
TL;DR: Data collected by the INDEPTH-II Passive-Source Experiment show that there is a substantial south to north variation in the velocity structure of the crust beneath southern Tibet, which implies that a partially molten layer is in the middle crust beneath the northern Yadong-Gulu rift and possibly much of southern Tibet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rayleigh wave phase velocity maps of Tibet and the surrounding regions from ambient seismic noise tomography
Yingjie Yang,Yingjie Yang,Yong Zheng,John Chen,Shiyong Zhou,Savas Celyan,Eric Sandvol,Frederik Tilmann,Keith Priestley,Thomas M. Hearn,James Ni,Lawrence D. Brown,Michael H. Ritzwoller +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply conservative data quality control criteria to accept between ∼5000 and ∼45,000 measurements as a function of period, which produce a lateral resolution between 100 and 200 km across most of the Tibetan Plateau and adjacent regions to the east.
