Seismic tomography models of the three-dimensional upper mantle velocity structure of the
Mediterranean-Carpathian region provide a better understanding of the lithospheric …

Across the entire mantle we interpret 94 positive seismic wave-speed anomalies as
subducted lithosphere and associate these slabs with their geological record. We document …

Compositional models of the Earth are critically dependent on three main sources of
information: the seismic profile of the Earth and its interpretation, comparisons between …

We relocate nearly 100,000 events that occurred during the period 1964 to 1995 and are
well-constrained teleseismically by arrival-time data reported to the International …

We have developed model S40RTS of shear-velocity variation in Earth's mantle using a new
collection of Rayleigh wave phase velocity, teleseismic body-wave traveltime and normal …

This substantially revised edition includes recently published information relating to plate
tectonics and continental origin. A large number of new figures have been added, and new …

The inverse problem of three‐dimensional (3‐D) local earthquake tomography is formulated
as a linear approximation to a nonlinear function. Thus the solutions obtained and the …

Seismic tomography based on P-wave travel times and improved earthquake locations
provides further evidence for mantle-wide convective flow. The use of body waves makes it …

Recent global travel time tomography studies by Zhou [1996] and van der Hilst et al.[1997]
have been performed with cell parameterizations of the order of those frequently used in …

Two new global high-resolution models of the P-wave and S-wave seismic structure of the
mantle were derived independently using different inversion techniques and different data …
