Estimation of elastic and anelastic structure of Iranian Plateau

in this study we purposed first elastic and anelastic structure of the lithosphere and asthenosphere of the iranian plateau is derived by means of tomographic techniques applied to local phase group velocities and local attenuation coefficients of rayleigh wave fundamental mode for this goal we conducted a tomographic inversion of ray leigh wave dispersion and attenuation coefficient to obtain two dimensional 2-D phase , group velocity and attenuation coefficient tomographic images in the period range from 10 s to 100 s for the iranian plateau.
