Global transition zone tomography

Abstract:: Our understanding of large-scale mantle dynamics depends on accurate models of seismic velocity variation in the upper mantle transition zone (400-1000 km depth). With the Mode Branch Stripping technique (MBS) of van Heijst and Woodhouse [1997] it is possible to extract the dispersion characteristics of overtone surface wave signals from single source-receiver overtone waveforms. Such data provide new global transition zone constraints. We combined more than a million measurements of path-ave...
