COLLABORATIVE MOMA PROJECTS

Shear-Wave Splitting Beneath MOMA


Shear wave splitting measurements were taken at MOMA and other eastern North American stations to examine the continental keel and patterns of mantle flow. [Fouch et al., 2000]

Anisotropy at the Base of the Mantle from SHdiff/SVdiff Waves





Differences bewteen the SHdiff and SVdiff waves observed at MOMA stations are used to examine the horizontal and vertical anisotropic variations in the D'' layer beneath the mid-Pacific. [Fouch et al., 2001] [Fouch et al., 2002]

Crustal Thickness Variations Across MOMA


Receiver functions are used to examine the lateral variation of the crust across the MOMA array. [Li et al., 2002]

Mantle Discontinuity Depth Variations Beneath MOMA


Converted phases are used to map out the change in mantle discontinuity topography in relation to the location of the Farallon slab. [Li et al., 1998]
