Supplementary data for Gama et al. (2022), Mapping the Lithosphere and Asthenosphere beneath Alaska with Sp Converted Waves, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems

Description

Abstract:
Each of the three files contains the depths of a single velocity gradient measured from a common conversion point stack of Sp phases recorded by broadband seismic stations in Alaska. Citation: Gama, I., Fischer, K. M., Hua, J., Mapping the Lithosphere and Asthenosphere beneath Alaska with Sp Converted Waves, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022. Moho_Depth.txt contains the depths of a positive velocity gradient interpreted as the Moho (Figure 7 of Gama et al., 2022); note that multiple Moho boundaries exist in some portions of southern Alaska, but only one value is given in each location in this file. LAB_Depth.txt contains the depth of a negative velocity gradient interpreted as the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (Figure 8b of Gama et al., 2022). PVG_Depth.txt contains the depths of a positive velocity gradient in the mantle below the lithosphere (Figure 9b of Gama et al., 2022). Columns are: Depth of velocity gradient (km); latitude (degrees); longitude (degrees); uncertainty (km). The uncertainty corresponds to the total depth range of one standard deviation; divide by two to get the value for a +/- error bar.
