Andrija Mohorovicic discovered the Moho boundary, or Mohorovicic discontinuity, in 1909 by observing the travel times of seismic waves. He noticed a sudden increase in seismic wave velocity at a certain depth in the Earth's interior, which indicated a change in composition and density between the Earth's crust and mantle. This boundary was later named after Mohorovicic in recognition of his discovery.
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).
Andriza Mohorovicic discovered the Mohorovicic discontinuity popularly known as Moho It is the boundary between the crust and the mantle it is about 2,880 kilometers thick. it is the thickest part of the earth's layer
The discovery of moho was through seismic waves...There are two 2 waves namely, Primary and Secondary waves...Secondary waves cannot pass through liquid and gasses. Thus, There is an abrupt increase in the velocity of earthquake waves (specifically P- waves) at this point.
The Mohorovicic Discontinuity, generally referred to as the Moho, where seismic waves increase in velocity.

The Moho, or Mohorovicic Discontinuity, is the boundary between the crust and the mantle.
The Moho is an abbreviation of the Mohorovicic Discontinuity, the boundary between the crust and the upper mantle.
No, the Outer Core is not known as the Moho. The Moho, short for Mohorovicic Discontinuity, is the boundary between the Earth's crust and mantle, while the Outer Core is a layer of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the Earth's solid inner core.
The Mohorovicic Discontinuity (also known as the Moho) separates the Earth's crust from the underlying mantle. It is the boundary where seismic waves change speed, indicating a change in composition and density between the two layers.

The project was suggested in March 1957 by Walter Munk, a NAS member (1956) and member of the National Science Foundation (NSF) Earth Science Panel. Andrija Mohorovicic a Croatian geologist discovered that there was an area, known as the "moho". The Moho was named for Andrija Mohorovicic, who first proposed the existence of such a discontinuity.
