Abstrakt: The article "Below-Moho Earthquakes of Tibet, Himalaya, the Indian Foreland, and Worldwide: How, Where and Why?" published in Acta Geologica Sinica (English Edition) in 2024 explores the mapping of continental earthquake depths relative to Moho depth in the India/Asia convergent orogen and globally. The study uses various methods to identify sub-Moho seismic activity in regions like Northwest Tibet, South Tibet, and Northeast India, shedding light on the potential causes of these earthquakes. The research aims to understand lithospheric rheology and geothermometry, offering insights into the seismicity of these regions. [Extracted from the article]
