One-dimensional physical reference models for the upper mantle and transition zone: combining seismic and mineral physics constraints [PDF]
One-dimensional seismic reference models are known to be a nonunique solution to global seismic data, hampering an interpretation in terms of physical structure. Here we test the compatibility of the simplest hypothesis of a mantle convecting as a whole,

Depth-varying azimuthal anisotropy and mantle flow in the Patagonian slab window
Subduction of spreading ridges forms slab windows which perturb the local structure and dynamics of the upper mantle. Slab windows may alter the pattern of mantle flow and serve as portals for the exchange of mantle material between upper mantle ...

The Zagros Core: Deformation of the continental lithospheric mantle [PDF]
The Zagros of Iran form one of the youngest collisional orogenic belts on Earth. At shallow depths, shortening across the Zagros is accommodated by folding in the sediments, high-angle thrust faulting in the basement and thickening of the lower crust ...

Three-dimensional P-velocity model of the mantle and seismicity of Fennoscandia.
The paper analyzes the three-dimensional P-velocity model of the mantle of North-West Europe (Fennoscandia) in order to isolate the connection of the earth's crustal earthquakes and processes in the mantle.

P-velocity of the upper mantle
The authors have constructed models featuring seismic P-wave velocity distribution in the upper mantle beneath oceanic, continental and transition regions, such as mid-ocean ridges, basins, trenches, island arcs, and back-arc troughs, Atlantic ...

The energetics of melting fertile heterogeneities within the depleted mantle [PDF]
To explore the consequences of mantle heterogeneity for primary melt production, we develop a mathematical model of energy conservation for an upwelling, melting body of recycled oceanic crust embedded in the depleted upper mantle.

Model illustrating the proposed mechanism by which chemotherapy‐induced downregulation of OGT disrupts SNAP29 O‐GlcNAcylation, promoting STX17‐SNAP29‐VAMP8 SNARE complex assembly and protective autophagy, leading to chemoresistance, which in turn establishes a feedforward loop to perpetuate drug tolerance.

Microstructural evolution and seismic anisotropy of upper mantle rocks in rift zones. Geologica Ultraiectina (300) [PDF]
This thesis investigates field-scale fragments of subcontinental upper mantle rocks from the ancient Mesozoic North Pyrenean rift and Plio-Pleistocene xenoliths from the active Baja California rift, in order to constrain the deformation history of the ...

Temperatures in ambient mantle and plumes: Constraints from basalts, picrites, and komatiites [PDF]
Several methods have been developed to assess the thermal state of the mantle below oceanic ridges, islands, and plateaus, on the basis of the petrology and geochemistry of erupted lavas. One leads to the conclusion that mantle potential temperature (i.e.
