The plume head-lithosphere interaction using a tectonically realistic formulation for the lithosphere

open access: yes, 2005
International audienceCurrent debates on the existence of mantle plumes largely originate from interpretations of supposed signatures of plume-induced surface topography that are compared with predictions of geodynamic models of plume–lithosphere ...

Preface of the volume "Volcanism and evolution of the African Lithosphere" Special Paper 478

open access: yes, 2011
The distribution of volcanism in the African plate is the surface expression of a variety of processes, many of which are poorly understood, involving interaction between the lithosphere and the underlying convective mantle.

Chemical and temporal variations in the Earth's lithosphere

open access: yes, 1999
The lithosphere is the rigid outer layer of the Earth, but its composition, and by implication its origins, are different in terrains of different ages.

Numerical analysis of lithosphere deformation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
This thesis comprises several studies in the modelling of lithosphere deformation, using an improved thin viscous sheet model. The lithosphere is represented by a thin viscous sheet with power-law viscosity, which is deformed by external forces as surf ...

Resistivity Structure of the Alabama‐Oklahoma Lineament and Mississippi Embayment: Insights Into Crustal Weakness, Heat Flow, and Seismicity of the Region

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
The Alabama–Oklahoma Lineament (AOL) is a major crustal boundary that intersects the Mississippi Embayment (ME) and may influence intraplate deformation in the southern United States.

Persistent Heterogeneities in the Oceanic Lithosphere Due To Differential Freezing Beneath Ridges

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Oceanic lithosphere, which forms two‐thirds of Earth's surface, is generated at mid‐ocean ridge spreading centers. Yet the internal structure of the lithosphere is not well characterized and often considered to be homogeneous relative to the structure of

Lithosphere folding: primary response to compression?

open access: yes, 1999
We examine the role of lithosphere folding in the large-scale evolution of the continental lithosphere. Analysis of the record of recent vertical motions and the geometry of basin deflection for a number of sites in Europe and worldwide suggests that ...
