Moho
The Mohorovičić discontinuity
Moho
or Mohorovii discontinuity Boundary between the Earth's crust and its mantle. The Moho lies at a depth of about 22 mi (35 km) below continents and about 4.5 mi (7 km) beneath the oceanic crust. Modern instruments have determined that the velocity of seismic waves increases rapidly at this boundary. The Moho was named for Andrija Mohorovii
Moho
{i} (Geology) layer of about 3-25 miles between the earth's crust and the mantle
moho
A gallinule (Notornis Mantelli) formerly inhabiting New Zealand, but now supposed to be extinct
moho
Mohorovicic discontinuity, a sharp discontinuity in seismic velocities separating the earth's crust from the underlying mantle, also called the crust-mantle boundary
moho
The boundary between the crust and the mantle in the earth This is a depth where seismic waves change velocity and there is also a change in chemical composition Also termed the Mohorovicic' discontinuity after the Croatian seismologist Andrija Mohorovicic' (1857-1936) who discovered it The boundary is between 25 and 60 km deep beneath the continents and between 5 and 8 km deep beneath the ocean floor
moho
The seismic discontinuity between the base of the Earth's crust and the top of the mantle P waves passing through the Moho change their velocity by approximately one kilometer per second, with the higher velocity occurring in the mantle and the lower in the crust
moho
A discontinuity in seismic velocity that marks the boundary between the Earth's crust and mantle Also termed the Mohorovicic' discontinuity, after the Croatian seismologist Andrija Mohorovicic' (1857-1936) who discovered it The boundary is between 25 and 60 km deep beneath the continents and between 5 and 8 km deep beneath the ocean floor
