AFRP22 Tomographic Model & MTZ Receiver Functions: Data, Software, Plotting

AFRP22 (Boyce et al., 2023), is an adaptively parameterized, absolute P-wave tomographic model for Africa provided with and without crustal correction. Also provided is mantle transition zone Receiver Functions for new stations in the Turkana Depression (data embargo lifted 2024-05-24). Citation: Boyce, A., Kounoudis, R., Bastow, I.
