Abstract

The vertical-component P-wave receiver function technique is used to extract the Moho multiples( Pp Pmp phase) and determine the thickness of the crust below the Baoqing station by 9 depth-teleseismic earthquakes come from the same back azimuth. The paper calculates that the crust thickness is 33.5 km under the Baoqing station. This result is also consistent with previous studies.
