The Mediterranean offers a unique opportunity to study the driving forces of tectonic
deformation within a complex mobile belt. Lithospheric dynamics are affected by slab …

The Green's function (GF) method, which makes use of GFs, is an important and elegant tool
for solving a given boundary-value problem for the differential equation from a real …

The origins of ultralow velocity zones, small-scale structures with extremely low seismic
velocities found near the core–mantle boundary, remain poorly understood. One hypothesis …

Earth as an Evolving Planetary System, Fourth Edition discusses key topics dealing with the
evolution and interaction through time of Earth's crust, mantle, core, atmosphere …

We present a tomographic model of radially anisotropic shear velocity variations in the
Earth's mantle based on a new compilation of previously published data sets and a variable …

We use normal-mode splitting functions in addition to surface wave phase anomalies, body
wave traveltimes and long-period waveforms to construct a 3-D model of anisotropic shear …

Abstract The Middle East region represents a key site within the Tethyan domain where
continental break-up, collision, backarc extension and escape tectonics are kinematically …

Much progress has been made over the past several decades in delineating the structure of
subducting slabs, but several key aspects of their dynamics remain poorly constrained …

A detailed 3‐D model of P wave isotropic velocity and azimuthal anisotropy beneath SE Asia
is obtained by jointly inverting local earthquake arrival times and teleseismic relative travel …

The formation of mountain belts or rift zones is commonly attributed to interactions between
plates along their boundaries, but the widely distributed deformation of Asia from Himalaya …
