A synoptic view of the distribution and connectivity of the mid‐crustal low velocity zone beneath Tibet
Based on 1–2 years of continuous observations of seismic ambient noise data obtained at
more than 600 stations in and around Tibet, Rayleigh wave phase velocity maps are …

Partially melted, mica‐bearing crust in Central Tibet
Surface wave tomography shows that the central Tibetan Plateau (the Qiangtang block) is
characterized by S wave speeds as slow as 3.3 km/s at depths from 20–25 km to 45–50 km …

Partial melt in the upper-middle crust of the northwest Himalaya revealed by Rayleigh wave dispersion
WB Caldwell, SL Klemperer, SS Rai, JF Lawrence - Tectonophysics, 2009 - Elsevier
Seismic shear-wave velocities are sensitive to the partial melts that should be present in the
Himalayan orogen if low-viscosity channel flow is active at the present day. We analyzed …

Use of electromagnetic radiation for potential forecast of earthquakes
A Rabinovitch, V Frid, D Bahat - Geological Magazine, 2018 - cambridge.org
A forecast of an earthquake should identify the first stages of earthquake development:
nucleation and stick-slip. We show that a forecast cannot be achieved by seismic …
