Monte Carlo approach to assess the uncertainty of wide-angle layered models: Application to the Santos Basin, Brazil

In the Santos Basin (Brazil), two parallel wide-angle refraction profiles show different crustal structures. One shows moderate crustal velocity gradient, and a clear Moho with topography. The other has an anomalous velocity zone, and no clear Moho reflections. This has large implications on the geo...
