The Moho is the name of the boundary between the crust and the mantle. It's a boundary where seismic waves increase in velocity. It is not an actual structure, but the beginning of the uppermost part of the mantle, which is composed of rigid, strong rock.
The Moho , short for Mohorovicic discontinuity , is about 7 kilometers below the floor of the ocean and the MANTLE is the layer immediately beneath the Moho !
The Moho discontinuity is 31 miles/50KM thick.
The Moho, short for Mohorovičić discontinuity, is a boundary in the Earth's crust that separates the solid crust from the underlying mantle. So, the Moho is where the solid crust transitions into the solid mantle, but it is not a solid or liquid layer itself.
The pressure of the Moho is estimated to be around 27 to 30 kilobars, which is equivalent to about 27,000 to 30,000 times the atmospheric pressure at sea level. This high pressure is due to the immense weight of the overlying rocks and crust above the Moho boundary.
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).
FeaR is MoHo
The Moho, or Mohorovicic Discontinuity, is the boundary between the crust and the mantle.
"moho" is the plate boundary between earth's crust and the mantle.
No. The Moho is simply the boundary between the mantle and the crust.
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!
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 Moho , short for Mohorovicic discontinuity , is about 7 kilometers below the floor of the ocean and the MANTLE is the layer immediately beneath the Moho !
