英文摘要: | We used receiver function (RF) analysis to derive new seismic models of Moho depth, crustal Vp/Vs ratio, depth of sedimentary velocity discontinuity, and corresponding sedimentary Vp/Vs ratio in the Permian Basin region from the seismic waveform data of 260 moment magnitude (Mw) ≥ 6 teleseismic events. We obtained the optimal models by searching one- and two-layer models and comparing similarity between the synthetic and observed RFs. We find the first-order velocity discontinuity in sedimentary basins is shallower than the basin basement. The Delaware Basin (DB) exhibits a bowl-shaped sedimentary velocity discontinuity, with depths ranging from 1.7 km to 5.8 km, whereas the Central Basin Platform (CBP) has a shallow sedimentary velocity discontinuity, with 0.2 km to 2.7 km depths. Moho depth ranges from 36 km to 46 km in the Permian Basin region. The median Vp/Vs ratios of the crust are 1.75, 1.79, and 1.78 in the DB, CBP, and the Diablo Platform (DP), respectively. Our interpretation of the different Vp/Vs ratio in the three subregions is that the crust in the DB includes more low-Vp/Vs-ratio felsic rocks, and the crust in the CBP and DP contains more high-Vp/Vs-ratio gabbroic and basaltic rocks from the Proterozoic and Phanerozoic mafic intrusion. © 2021 |
