- <meta content="Surface-wave tomography for the Australian region, using data mostly from portable seismic recorders,
- reveals a very strong contrast in seismic shear-wave speed beneath central and western Australia
- and the east of the continent. Shear-wave speeds faster than the continental average extend to at
- least 200 km depth in the cratonic zone to the west of 140 degrees E. Along an approximately north-south line
- there is then an eastward step to thinner lithosphere (~150 km thick) but still with fast shear-wave
- speeds. A further more irregular transition to the east marks the transition to lowered shear-wave
- speeds. The eastern transition at 75 km depth is in close agreement with the original Tasman Line,
- whereas the two more westerly transitions do not bear a simple relation to the more recent group of
- Tasman Lines defined from crustal information (outcrop and inferred geophysical trends). The westward
- transition to the thickest coherent lithosphere (near 140 degrees E) may well mark the edge of the ancient
- core of the continent, but the current mantle structures must bear the scars of the breakups and reassembly
- that have created the current Australian continent." name="eprints.abstract" />

- reveals a very strong contrast in seismic shear-wave speed beneath central and western Australia
- and the east of the continent. Shear-wave speeds faster than the continental average extend to at
- least 200 km depth in the cratonic zone to the west of 140 degrees E. Along an approximately north-south line
- there is then an eastward step to thinner lithosphere (~150 km thick) but still with fast shear-wave
- speeds. A further more irregular transition to the east marks the transition to lowered shear-wave
- speeds. The eastern transition at 75 km depth is in close agreement with the original Tasman Line,
- whereas the two more westerly transitions do not bear a simple relation to the more recent group of
- Tasman Lines defined from crustal information (outcrop and inferred geophysical trends). The westward
- transition to the thickest coherent lithosphere (near 140 degrees E) may well mark the edge of the ancient
- core of the continent, but the current mantle structures must bear the scars of the breakups and reassembly
- that have created the current Australian continent.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">craton, lithosphere, seismology, Tasman Line.</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/260100.html">260000 Earth Sciences > 260100 Geology</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Collections:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">UNSPECIFIED</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">1587</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Mrs Katrina Keep</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">13 Aug 2007</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">30 Jan 2008 15:32</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=1587;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&eprintid=1587">item control page</a></p>
