Content:
Developments in Geotectonics 8: The Structure of the Earth's Crust Based on Seismic Data covers the papers presented at an International Upper Mantle Committee (lUMC) symposium called """"Crustal Structure Based on Seismic Data"""", held on July 30-31, 1971. The book focuses on the structure, composition, and characteristics of the earth's crust. The selection first offers information on the crustal structure of Central and Southeastern Europe by data of explosion seismology; structure of the earth's crust on the territory of the U.S.S.R.; and seismic studies of low-velocity layers and horizo
Note:
"Contains 33 papers presented at an International Upper Mantle Committee (IUMC) Symposium on "Crustal Structure Based on Seismic Data" held on July 30-31, 1971."
