Tomographic Imaging of Slab Segmentation and Deformation in the Greater Antilles [PDF]
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018 We present a new tomographic P wave model of the upper mantle in the east Caribbean region. The model was built using 3‐D finite frequency sensitivity kernels and ~20,000 teleseismic P and PP traveltime residuals from 535 events recorded across 130 ...

Recent evolutionary divergence in a plant ring-species is not accompanied by floral phenology or pollinator shifts [PDF]
Plant Ecology and EvolutionBackground and aims – The study of factors and processes involved in evolutionary divergence can inform how biodiversity is generated and maintained. We evaluate shifts in phenology or in pollination systems as potential barriers to gene exchange and ...
