Active-source seismic survey on the northeastern Hawaiian Arch: insights into crustal structure and mantle reflectors

Abstract Seismic refraction and multi-channel seismic reflection surveys were conducted on the northeastern Hawaiian Arch to examine the effect of hotspot volcanism on the seismic structure of the crust and uppermost mantle. The crustal thickness deduced from the refraction data was typical for ocea...
