S-wave receiver function image of the crustal and upper mantle structure across the
eastern India–Tibet collision zone. (A) Topography and station positions along the
profile. (B) Seismic cross-section constructed with a horizontal bin width of 8.1 km
using 542 S-wave receiver functions. (C) Seismic cross-section constructed with a
horizontal bin width of 12 km and the interpretation of the major conversion
interfaces observed in the cross-section. The Moho is relatively clear, but the mantle
converters such as the YZC or T-LAB, ‘7’ and ‘8’ are diffuse on the cross-section due
to their weak impedancecontrasts or gradient character at boundaries, and also due to
the fewer (by a factor of 15) available S-wave data compared to the P-wave. Dashed
grey lines mark the I-LAB obtained on the INDEPTH profile (Zhao et al., 2011) and
in northeastern India (UmaDevi et al., 2011), aligned using latitude as reference.
