Penrose conference on lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1975
A Penrose Conference on The Lithosphere‐Asthenosphere Boundary will be convened by Thomas H. Jordan and William S. Fyfe at Vail, Colorado, in mid‐November 1975. The tentative dates are November 16 to 21.Many definitions of the lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary exist on the basis of various geodetic, seismological, penological, and rheological data or ...

The Indian Plate subducting below the Tibet Plateau is tearing apart

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The first-order configuration of the Himalayan orogen is defined by northward motion of the Indian plate, whether directly underplating Tibetan crust or subducting beneath a mantle wedge.

Satellite magnetic modeling of north African hot spots [PDF]

open access: yes
The primary objectives of the MAGSAT mission was to measure the intensity and direction of magnetization of the Earth's crust. A significant effort was directed to the large crustal anomalies first delineated by the POGO mission.
