The Moho depth is estimated from a combination of geophysical techniques, including, but not limited to, the analysis of passive seismic data archived at AusPass.
The techniques and data sources used to build the AusMoho collection are listed below with relevant references.
The collection is the most complete at this date (2023 January), and includes many estimates that were not in the AuSREM model, released in 2012 (see Salmon et al., 2013 in compilations below).
