Crustal and upper mantle structure of Oman and the Northern Middle East
(Cornell University, 2003-01)This dissertation focuses on studying the crustal structure on the southeast margin and foreland of Arabia in Oman, and upper mantle rheology and structure at the zone of interaction between the Arabian, Eurasian, and ... -
Crustal model for the Middle East and North Africa region: Implications for the isostatic compensation mechanism
(Blackwell Publishing, 2001)We present a new 3-D crustal model for the Middle East and North Africa region that includes detailed topography, sediment thickness, and Moho depth values. The model is obtained by collecting, integrating, and interpolating ... -
Geophysical and geological databases and CTBT monitoring: A case study of the Middle East
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1996)With the anticipated completion of multilateral comprehensive nuclear test ban and nonproliferation treaties in the near future, it is essential for the monitoring efforts that multidisciplinary information on a given ... -
Grid search modeling of receiver functions: Implications for crustal structure in the Middle East and North Africa
(American Geophysical Union, 1998)A grid search is used to estimate average crustal thickness and shear wave velocity structure beneath 12 three-component broadband seismic stations in the Middle East, North Africa, and nearby regions. The crustal thickness ... -
Tomographic imaging of Lg and Sn Propagation in the Middle East
(Springer Verlag, 2001)Observations based on relatively limited data recorded by sparsely distributed stations have indicated that regional seismic phase propagation (Lg and Sn) is very complex in the Middle East. Accurate characterization of ...
