Seismic velocity structure of the crust and uppermost mantle beneath the Tien Shan and its adjacent areas by Shengzhong Zhang, Bing Zhang, Ming Zhou, Longbin Ouyang

“…Our velocity models show a good correlation with subsurface geological features at shallow depths: low velocities are predominantly observed beneath the basins due to thick sedimentary layer, whereas high velocities are mainly distributed beneath the mountain ranges due to crystalline basement rocks. In the upper mantle a low velocity zone is obviously observed beneath the western Tien Shan. …”
