متن کاملSeismological support for the metastable superplume model, sharp features, and phase changes within the lower mantle.
Recently, a metastable thermal-chemical convection model was proposed to explain the African Superplume. Its bulk tabular shape remains relatively stable while its interior undergoes significant stirring with low-velocity conduits along its edges and down-welling near the middle. Here, we perform a mapping of chemistry and temperature into P and S velocity variations and replace a seismically d...
متن کاملSeismological Insights into Heterogeneity Patterns in the Mantle
Both geophysical and geochemical techniques contribute to our understanding of the complex nature of the Earth’s mantle, but the two sources of information provide very different viewpoints. Most geophysical evidence provides an instantaneous snapshot of current structure, whilst geochemical evidence has much more information on age. Further, geophysical probes are naturally integrative since t...
متن کاملFrom Reference Model to Component Model
Stable component models are an essential prerequisite for developing customer-individual business applications. Thereby the information for the identification and specification of their components is gained from domain models. Reference models constitute a potential source for building enterprisespecific domain models. Based on the analysis of existing reference models, this article shows how i...
متن کاملSeismological Constraints on Structure and Flow Patterns Within the Mantle Wedge
The mantle wedge of a subduction zone is characterized by low seismic velocities and high attenuation, indicative of temperatures approaching the solidus and the possible presence of melt and volatiles. Tomographic images show a low velocity region above the slab extending from 150 km depth up to the volcanic front. The low velocities result at least partially from volatiles fluxed off the slab...
