Moho and uppermost mantle structure in the greater Alpine area from S-to-P converted waves
Rainer Kind, Stefan M. Schmid, Xiaohui Yuan, Ben Heit, and Thomas Meier – 2021
A large amount of new seismic data from the greater Alpine area have been obtained within the AlpArray and SWATH-D projects. S-to P converted seismic phases from the Moho and from the mantle lithosphere have been processed with a newly developed method. Examples of new observations are a rapid change in Moho depth at 13° E below the Tauern Window from 60 km in the west to 40 km in the east and a second Moho trough along the boundary of the Bohemian Massif towards the Western Carpathians.
