Crustal thickness beneath Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from spectra of SH waves at station RDJ

Amplitude and phase spectra of long period analog S wave records were used to estimate crustal thickness under Rio de Janeiro seismic station. Earthquakes with shallow focal depths (10-33 km) and epicentral distances varying from 83 to 88 degrees provided the best estimates of crustal thickness. Epi...
