Abstract: | A comparison of theoretical seismograms under discussion with four teleseismograms recorded by WWSSN of SBA(New Zealand) and SPA (U.S.A.),shows that the crustal thickness beneath South Pole is a double-layered structure, about 45 km ; crustal thickness below the Ross Sea Beach,a single structure, is about 24 km ;and at the depth of 350~450 km there exists a low velocity layer. The above results indicate the different tectonic characteristics on both sides of Antarctic Transantarctic Mountains. |
