Integrated and Comparative Geophysical Studies of CrustalStructure of Pull-apart Basins: The Salton Trough and Death Valley, California Regions
Integrated: - Receiver Function - Gravity • Magnetic • Pre-existing seismic models
RF • A receiver function is the seismic response of the earth beneath a seismic station to an incoming P-wave. The physical earth property that controls what is observed in a receiver function is the P-to-S impedance structure • http://www.earthscope.org/
Gravity • http://research.utep.edu/
Crustal Models • Four 2-D crustal models were constructed • A-A`, B-B`, C-C trend in SW-NE and D-D` trends in NW-SE direction
