Abstract:
A velocity section was obtained to a depth of about 250 km on the eastern margin of the Sarmatia protocraton (East-European Craton) based on P receiver functions (PRF). Seismograms of the new broadband station «Aleksandrovka» were used as initial data. The section reveals the main seismic boundaries, and also shows the presence of mid-lithospheric discontinuity in the upper mantle (MLD).

Abstract. We used more than 40 000 S-receiver functions recorded by the USArray project to study the structure of the upper mantle between the Moho and the 410 km discontinuity from the Phanerozoic western United States to the cratonic central US. We obtained clear observations of downward velocity reductions in the uppermost mantle which are commonly interpreted as the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB) in the western US and as the mid-lithospheric discontinuity (MLD) in the cratonic US. We observe the western LAB reaching partly to the mid-continental rift system underneath the cratoni

Abstract. We used more than 40 000 S-receiver functions recorded by the USArray project to study the structure of the upper mantle between the Moho and the 410 km discontinuity from the Phanerozoic western United States to the cratonic central US. In the western United States we observed the lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB), and in the cratonic United States we observed both the mid-lithospheric discontinuity (MLD) and the LAB of the craton. In the northern and southern United States the western LAB almost reaches the mid-continental rift system. In between these two regions the craton

Abstract:
Summary To elucidate the nature and extent of the lithospheric modification in the central and western North China Craton (NCC) and adjacent regions, we used the wave equation–based migration technique of S-receiver function on teleseismic data collected from 314 broadband stations in this region to image the lithospheric structure. Incorporating data from previous lithospheric structure studies, we obtained unprecedented high-resolution depth maps of the lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB) and mid-lithospheric discontinuity (MLD) in the NCC. Our results show more detailed variations of t

Abstract:
Abstract We investigated the structure, equation of state, thermodynamics, and elastic properties of tremolite amphibole [Ca2Mg5Si8O22(OH)2] up to 10 GPa and 2000 K, using first principles simulations based on density functional perturbation theory. We found that at 300 K, the pressure-volume results can be adequately described by a third-order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state with bulk moduli K0 of 78.5 and 66.3 GPa based on local density approximation (LDA) and generalized gradient approximation (GGA), respectively. We also derived its coefficients of the elastic tensor based on LDA and GGA
