What does moho stand for?
"moho" is the plate boundary between earth's crust and the mantle.
The mantle is separated from the layer above it by a boundary called what?
The Mohorovičić discontinuity (commonly shortened to Moho).
What is a unique characteristic of the moho?
The Moho is best known for being the boundary between the Earth's crust and the mantle. A unique characteristic of the Moho are its dry and deep ridges.
What is the boundary of the moho layer and the mantle?
ummm hello! its just the moho layer! the moho layer is the boundary between the mantle and the crust!there is absolutely no boundary between the moho layer and the mantle! you think i am wrong? then drill to the moho layer and find out!
What is the moho in the earths layers?
The Mohorovicic Discontinuity is the boundary between the crust and the mantle, where seismic waves change velocity.
What does moho stand for?
"moho" is the plate boundary between earth's crust and the mantle.
The lower boundary of Earth's crust is called?
Moho
Where is the moho barrier located in the layers of earth?
The lithosphere

What is the moho in the earths layers?
The Mohorovicic Discontinuity is the boundary between the crust and the mantle, where seismic waves change velocity.
What is the difference between the Mohorovicic discontinuity and the Gutenberg discontinuity?
They mark the boundaries of differing layers of the Earth. The Moho marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle, whereas the Gutenberg discontinuity marks the boundary between the mantle and outer core.
Where is the Moho locate?
The Moho, or Mohorovicic Discontinuity, is the boundary between the crust and the mantle.
Is the lithosphere and asthenosphere boundary above or below the Moho?
The boundary between the asthenosphere and the lithosphere is normally below the Moho (which marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle). The exception to this is below mid-ocean ridges where the moho and the lithosphere / asthenosphere boundary are at the same depth.
Who was Andrija Mohorovicic?
Andrija_Mohorovičić (1857-1936) was a Croatian seismologist and meteorologist who theorized the boundary layer between the Earth's crust and its mantle, now known as the Mohorovicic Discontinuity (aka Moho).
Does the moho cause volcanic eruptions?
No. The Moho is simply the boundary between the mantle and the crust.
