The African upper mantle and its relationship to tectonics and surface geology [PDF]

open access: bronzeGeophysical Journal International, 2008
This paper focuses on the upper-mantle velocity structure of the African continent and its relationship to the surface geology. The distribution of seismographs and earthquakes providing seismograms for this study results in good fundamental and higher mode path coverage by a large number of relatively short propagation paths, allowing us to image the ...

The Deep Roots of Geology: Tectonic History of Australia and its Margins expressed by Mantle Anisotropy [PDF]

open access: green, 2021
Abstract The Australian continental crust preserves a rich geological history, but it is unclear to what extent this history is expressed deeper within the mantle. Scattering of surface waves predominantly between 100-200 km depth by lateral gradients in seismic anisotropy, termed Quasi-Love waves, offer potential new insights.

The Deep Roots of Geology: Tectonic History of Australia Preserved as Mantle Anisotropy [PDF]

open access: green, 2021
Abstract Australia is an old stable continent with a rich geological history. Limitations in sub-surface imaging below the Moho, however, mean that is unclear to what extent, and to what depth, this rich geological history is expressed in the mantle.

Crust-Mantle Interaction Controls the Formation of High-Mg Adakitic Rocks: Evidence from Early Cretaceous Intrusive Complexes in Luxi Terrane, North China Craton [PDF]

open access: yesLithosphere, 2023
High-Mg adakite rocks preserve crucial information about the crust-mantle interactions during the magma evolution. The Luxi Terrane, southeastern North China Craton, stores a set of Early Cretaceous high-Mg adakite rocks; nevertheless, their petrogenesis
