Seismological structure of the 1.8 Ga Trans-Hudson Orogen of North America [PDF]

, 2016
Precambrian tectonic processes are debated: what was the nature and scale of orogenic events on the younger, hotter, and more ductile Earth? Northern Hudson Bay records the Paleoproterozoic collision between the Western Churchill and Superior plates—the ∼

Influence of the Hainan Plume on the Deep Thermal Structure and Shallow Geothermal Field of Southeastern Coastal China

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Thermal anomalies within the lithosphere are an important manifestation of mantle plume–lithosphere interaction. Early studies primarily concentrated on the presence of the Hainan plume and its surface responses, with comparatively little research ...

Lithospheric Architecture and Mantle Metasomatism Linked to Iron Oxide Cu‐Au Ore Formation: Multidisciplinary Evidence from the Olympic Dam Region, South Australia

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018
The role of lithospheric architecture and the mantle in the genesis of iron oxide copper‐gold (IOCG) deposits is controversial. Using the example of the Precambrian Gawler Craton (South Australia), which hosts the giant Olympic Dam IOCG deposit, we ...

Identifying mantle lithosphere inheritance in controlling intraplate orogenesis [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2016
AbstractCrustal inheritance is often considered important in the tectonic evolution of the Wilson Cycle. However, the role of the mantle lithosphere is usually overlooked due to its difficulty to image and uncertainty in rheological makeup. Recently, increased resolution in lithosphere imaging has shown potential scarring in continental mantle ...

Inferences of mantle viscosity based on ice age data sets: Radial structure [PDF]

, 2016
We perform joint nonlinear inversions of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) data, including the following: postglacial decay times in Canada and Scandinavia, the Fennoscandian relaxation spectrum (FRS), late-Holocene differential sea level (DSL ...

Coupled mantle dripping and lateral dragging controlling the lithosphere structure of the NW-Moroccan margin and the Atlas Mountains: A numerical experiment [PDF]

, 2014
Recent studies integrating gravity, geoid, surface heat flow, elevation and seismic data indicate a prominent lithospheric mantle thickening beneath the NW-Moroccan margin (LAB >200 km-depth) followed by thinning beneath the Atlas Domain (LAB about 80 km-

Deep lithospheric structures along the southern central Chile Margin from wide-angle P-wave modellilng [PDF]

, 2009
Crustal- and upper-mantle structures of the subduction zone in south central Chile, between 42 degrees S and 46 degrees S, are determined from seismic wide-angle reflection and refraction data, using the seismic ray tracing method to calculate minimum ...

Rheological control of Wadati-Benioff zone seismicity [PDF]

, 1988
Intermediate and deep focus earthquakes in Wadati-Benioff zones are thought to occur in the cold interiors of downgoing slabs which are significantly stronger than the warmer mantle.

A numerical model for the gravimetric recovery of sub-lithospheric mantle structures

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2020
It is a well-known fact that the long-wavelength terrestrial geoid undulations are mainly attributed to deep mantle density heterogeneities, while more detailed features in the geoid geometry are associated with the topography and the lithospheric ...
