Response of the mantle to flat slab evolution: Insights from local splitting beneath Peru [PDF]
, 2014 The dynamics of flat subduction, particularly the interaction between a flat slab and the overriding plate, are poorly understood. Here we study the (seismically) anisotropic properties and deformational regime of the mantle directly above the Peruvian ...
