Upper Mantle Internal Structure Study

Geophysical studies are the main source of information about the deep structure of the upper mantle of the Earth. Here is a list of geophysical methods to provide the most accurate information about the structure of the Earth's mantle. Earth's velocity structure
Seismology - the scientific study of earthquakes, the propagation of elastic waves through the Earth, earthquake effects, such as tsunamis, diverse seismic sources such as volcanic, tectonic, oceanic, atmospheric, explosions.
Gravimetry is the measurement of a gravitational field of the Earth.
Geothermy is the measurement of a geothermal field of the Earth.
Geomagnetism is the exploration and analysis the Earth’s magnetic field.
