The Cenozoic Colorado Plateau physiographic province overlies multiple Precambrian
provinces. Its∼ 2-km elevation rim surrounds an∼ 1.6-km elevation core that is underlain by …

Receiver functions have become a widely used tool to study the seismic velocity structure
beneath a single station by imaging impedance boundaries where mode conversions from P …

Rayleigh wave phase velocity maps from ambient noise and earthquake data are inverted
jointly with receiver functions observed at 828 stations from the USArray Transportable Array …

The correspondence between seismic velocity anomalies in the crust and mantle and the
differential incision of the continental-scale Colorado River system suggests that significant …

The amalgamation of crustal blocks that composes the western cordillera of North America
has a long history of deformation across a broad zone. Investigations spanning a range of …

We investigate S velocity variation in the upper mantle beneath North American to better
understand the effects of data heterogeneity, model parameterization, and regularization. To …

It is generally agreed that a region encompassing the Colorado Plateau has been uplifted by
sub‐crustal processes. Admittance calculations, tomographic studies and receiver function …

To understand the formation and the tectonic process of the Mesozoic middle–lower
Yangtze metallogenic belt (YMB), the SinoProbe program deployed a quasi-linear passive …

Abstract The Lei‐Qiong region is the largest igneous province in southern China and may
be a surface expression of a mantle plume beneath the region (the Hainan mantle plume) …

Trace element signatures of mantle xenoliths along an east-west transect extending from the
Sierra Nevada to the Colorado Plateau were investigated in this study. Those beneath the …
