P wave tomography of the mantle under the Alpine‐Mediterranean area
We study the upper mantle P wave velocity structure below the Euro‐Mediterranean area,
down to 1000 km depth, by seismic travel time tomography. We invert summary residuals …

The relative behavior of shear velocity, bulk sound speed, and compressional velocity in the mantle: Implications for chemical and thermal structure
Despite immense progress in imaging seismic velocity anomalies in the mantle over the past
15 years, we still know relatively little about their physical cause. One way to shed some light …

Characterization of global seismograms using an automatic-picking algorithm
An automatic phase picker is useful for quickly identifying and timing phase arrivals in large
seismic data bases. We have developed an automatic phase picker that is sensitive to small …

A regionalized upper mantle (RUM) seismic model
Seismic velocity heterogeneity in the Earth's mantle is strongly concentrated near its top. The
shallow heterogeneity of the mantle correlates strongly with surface tectonics. We use these …

Plate tectonics and surface environment: Role of the oceanic upper mantle
J Korenaga - Earth-science reviews, 2020 - Elsevier
Earth is so far the only planet that exhibits plate tectonics, and along with the right
heliocentric distance and the presence of surface water, plate tectonics is among necessary …

Compositional heterogeneity in the bottom 1000 kilometers of Earth's mantle: Toward a hybrid convection model
RD van der Hilst, H Kárason - Science, 1999 - science.org
Tomographic imaging indicates that slabs of subducted lithosphere can sink deep into
Earth's lower mantle. The view that convective flow is stratified at 660-kilometer depth and …

Non-linear global P-wave tomography by iterated linearized inversion
Recent advances in global imaging have lead to tomographic mantle models with regional
scale details. To improve these models further, we have extended the usual linearized …
