1. (Geological Science) the boundary between the earth's crust and mantle, across which there is a sudden change in the velocity of seismic waves. Often shortened to: Moho. [C20: named after Andrija MohoroviÄiÄ (1857-1936), Croatian geologist].
At this discontinuity, seismic waves accelerate. This surface is known as the Mohorovicic Discontinuity or often simply referred to as the Moho. The Mohorovicic Discontinuity was discovered in 1909 by Andrija Mohorovicic, a Croatian seismologist. Mohorovicic realized that the velocity of a seismic wave is related to the density of the material that it is moving through.
