Conductive Channels in the Deep Oceanic Lithosphere Could Consist of Garnet Pyroxenites at the Fossilized Lithosphere–Asthenosphere Boundary [PDF]
Minerals, 2020 Magnetotelluric (MT) surveys have identified anisotropic conductive anomalies in the mantle of the Cocos and Nazca oceanic plates, respectively, offshore Nicaragua and in the eastern neighborhood of the East Pacific Rise (EPR). Both the origin and nature

Thermal Evolution of the Lithosphere‐Asthenosphere Boundary Beneath Arc and Its Geodynamic Implications: Depth Variation of Thermal Histories of Mantle Xenoliths From Ichinomegata, Northeast Japan [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2023 Quantitative reconstruction of thermal history recorded in mantle xenoliths is imperative for understanding the temporal change of thermal state and dynamics of the lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB).

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 191-228., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

A local lithospheric structure model for Vietnam derived from a high-resolution gravimetric geoid
Earth, Planets and Space, 2021 High-resolution Moho and lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary depth models for Vietnam and its surrounding areas are determined based on a recently released geoid model constructed from surface and satellite gravity data (GEOID_LSC_C model) and on 3ʹʹ ...

Lithospheric Structure of the Circum‐Pannonian Region Imaged by S‐To‐P Receiver Functions
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023 The lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary and mid‐lithospheric discontinuities are primary attributes of the upper mantle. The Pannonian region is an extensional sedimentary basin enclosed by collisional orogens.

Thermal nature and resolution of the lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary under the Pacific from surface waves [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 2018 It is strongly debated whether the interface between the lithosphere and underlying as- thenosphere is a temperature-dependent rheological transition, as expected in a thermal convection system, or additionally affected by the presence of melts and/or ...
