Seismic refraction profiling, which analyzes the travel times of head waves critically refracted along velocity discontinuities like the Mohorovicic discontinuity (Moho), is the classic method for determining crustal thickness beneath both continents and oceans.
Crustal thickness is classically determined using seismic refraction profiling, which measures the travel times of seismic waves critically refracted along the Moho (the crust-mantle velocity...
