Constraints on crustal and mantle structure of the oceanic plate south of Iceland from ocean bottom recorded Rayleigh waves
From April to July 2002 we carried out a deployment of 6 ocean bottom seismometers and 4 ocean bottom hy-drophones in the North Atlantic south of Iceland. During the deployment period we recorded clear Rayleigh waves from 2 regional and 14 teleseismic earthquakes. This cor-responds to a Rayleigh wav...
