[HTML][HTML] Moho and magmatic underplating in continental lithosphere
Underplating was originally proposed as the process of magma ponding at the base of the
crust and was inferred from petrologic considerations. This process not only may add high …

[HTML][HTML] Crustal structure of the Siberian craton and the West Siberian basin: An appraisal of existing seismic data
We present a digital model SibCrust of the crustal structure of the Siberian craton (SC) and
the West Siberian basin (WSB), based on all seismic profiles published since 1960 and …

A new crustal shear-velocity model in Southwest China from joint seismological inversion and its implications for regional crustal dynamics
Southwest (SW) China is located in a transition site from the active Tibetan Plateau to the
stable Yangtze craton, which has complicated tectonic deformation and severe seismic …

Predicting geothermal heat flow in Antarctica with a machine learning approach
We present a machine learning approach to statistically derive geothermal heat flow (GHF)
for Antarctica. The adopted approach estimates GHF from multiple geophysical and …

Sheared peridotite and megacryst formation beneath the Kaapvaal craton: a snapshot of tectonomagmatic processes across the lithosphere–asthenosphere transition
The cratonic lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary is commonly invoked as the site of
sheared peridotite and megacryst formation, a well-recognized petrological assemblage …

New insights into the crust and lithospheric mantle structure of Africa from elevation, geoid, and thermal analysis
We present new crust and lithosphere thickness maps of the African mainland based on
integrated modeling of elevation and geoid data and thermal analysis. The approach …

Diamond's depth distribution systematics
P Nimis, R Preston, SH Perritt, IL Chinn - Lithos, 2020 - Elsevier
The thermobarometric analysis of inclusions in lithospheric diamonds has shown that these
diamonds may originate from a wide range of depths, with a global mode at~ 175±15 km …

Craton destruction 1: Cratonic keel delamination along a weak midlithospheric discontinuity layer
Cratons are generally observed to retain thick (> 180 km) conductive keels for billions of
years. However, some cratons have undergone keel removal, with well‐documented …
