Variations of the crustal thickness in Nepal Himalayas based on tomographic inversion of regional earthquake data

We estimate variations of the crustal thickness beneath the Nepal Himalayas based on tomographic inversion of regional earthquake data. We have obtained a low-velocity anomaly in the upper part of the model down to depths of 40 to 80 km and proposed that the lower limit of this anomaly represents va...
