DETERMINATION OF THE STRUCTURE OF THE EARTH'S CRUST BASED ON TELESEISMIC WAVES
In this study, converted (teleseismic) waves generated by long-distance (teleseismic) earthquakes were analyzed based on data
from a seismic station installed at the Aksok-ata field experiment base. The crustal structure and the depth of the boundaries with
velocity contrast were determined based on the conversion of P-waves to S-waves at the boundaries within the crust (Ps phase).
As a result of the analysis, several velocity-variable boundaries were identified, including the Moho level.
