Journal ArticleDOI
Seismic anisotropy and mantle flow beneath the Baikal rift zone
Stephen S. Gao,Paul M. Davis,Hantao Liu,P. D. Slack,Yu A. Zorin,V. V. Mordvinova,V. M. Kozhevnikov,Robert P. Meyer +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an array of seismic stations across the Baikal rift zone in southern Siberia were used to investigate the direction of mantle flow in such regions using the seismic anisotropy created by flow-induced orientation of mantle olivine crystals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional velocity structure and hypocenter distribution in the Campi Flegrei caldera, Italy
Richard C. Aster,Robert P. Meyer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a residual-based tomographic technique was applied to isolate a low-seismicity, anomalously high vpvs region in the central caldera, roughly coincident with the region of greatest uplift.
Journal ArticleDOI
A three-dimensional seismic image of the crust and upper mantle beneath the Kenya rift
TL;DR: A tomographic image of the seismic structure beneath the Kenya rift shows its three-dimensional character, suggesting that the amount of crustal modification also varies along the length of the rift.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crustal structure across the Wasatch Front from detailed seismic refraction studies
TL;DR: In this paper, a high-resolution seismic refraction profile using large open-pit mine blasts as sources has been recorded along a 340-km profile that crosses the Basin and Range-Middle Rocky Mountains province boundary in northern Utah.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crustal structure of Oaxaca, Mexico, from seismic refraction measurements
Carlos Valdés,Walter D. Mooney,Shri Krishna Singh,Robert P. Meyer,Cinna Lomnitz,James H. Luetgert,C. E. Helsley,Brian T. R. Lewis,M. Mena +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model of the seafloor-to-continent transition in the State of Oaxaca in southwestern Mexico has been presented, based on reflected phases from the Moho discontinuity.
