Abstract The East Asian continent records a complex geologic and tectonic history that
involved the amalgamation of several small-to medium-sized blocks from Laurasia or …

The Southern Urals of Russia contain what is arguably one of the best-preserved examples
of an arc–continent collision in any Paleozoic orogen. The arc–continent collision history …

Plate tectonic theory was developed 50 years ago and underpins most of our understanding
of Earth's evolution. The theory explains observations of magnetic lineations on the seafloor …

Presenting a coherent synthesis of lithosphere studies, this book covers a range of
geophysical methods (seismic reflection, refraction, and receiver function methods; elastic …

Utilizing seismic refraction/wide-angle reflection data from 11 approximately in-line
earthquakes, 2-D P-and S-velocity models and a Poisson′ s ratio model of the crust and …

Дано описание геологии Южного и Среднего Урала, облеченное в концентрированную
форму геодинамического анализа. В книге охарактеризована структура Урала, а также …

We present a summary of geophysical models of the subcrustal lithosphere of Europe. This
includes the results from seismic (reflection and refraction profiles, P-and S-wave …

A new method for modeling the thermal structure of the lithosphere, termed thermal isostasy,
is presented and used to calculate the lithosphere thickness and to predict geothermal heat …

Radial and transverse teleseismic receiver functions (RFs) at GSN station ARU, in central
Eurasia, display variation in back‐azimuth ψ consistent with a 1‐D anisotropic crustal …

Although crustal thickness is a critical constraint for geodynamic models of Andean
orogenesis, relatively few measurements exist from local seismic studies. In this study, we …
