| Popis: | The thickness and internal properties of the magma sill located at the top of the axial magma chamber (AMC) along the southern East Pacific Rise (EPR) have been investigated through a combination of waveform modeling the near-vertical incidence reflections from this body and analysis of reflection amplitude variation as a function of source-receiver offset (or slowness). Our results show that the AMC reflector observed along the southern EPR is best modeled by a thin ( |
