This paper combines observations of seismicity, gravity, topography and thermal and velocity structures to investigate the rheological properties of the lithosphere in the Lake Baikal region. We examine the seismogenic thickness (Ts) using 25 earthquakes of Mw 5.1–7.1 , whose full source parameters have been determined by inversion of teleseismic waveforms, 13 of which are presented here for the first time. These 25 events, plus six others (Mw 5.0–5.8) whose depths are well constrained, show that moderate earthquakes occur at depths up to ∼30 km in the northeast Baikal rift. Based on the teleseismic waveform modelling results and published relocations of microearthquakes using regional networks, we conclude that the mantle is not a sig...
