Crustal thickness in the southern appalachians: an analysis of seismic reflections from the Moho
This thesis presents the first use of the wide angle seismic reflection technique to determine crustal thickness in north-central Alabama. Records of quarry blasts recorded on an array of seismometers were used to determine travel times of reflected P waves from the Mohorovicic discontinuity (the bo...
