Geophysical imaging of a tilted mantle plume extending at least 500 km beneath the
Yellowstone caldera provides compelling support for a plume origin of the entire …

The present review covers the heat transfer literature published in 2004 in English
language, including some translations of foreign language papers. Though extensive, some …

Integration of geophysical and geological data show that the Yellowstone hotspot resulted
from a mantle plume interacting with the overriding North America plate, a process that has …

A combined geophysical‐petrological methodology to study the thermal, compositional,
density, and seismological structure of lithospheric/sublithospheric domains is presented. A …

Recent studies of oceanic microseisms have concentrated on fundamental mode surface
waves. Extraction of fundamental mode Rayleigh and Love wave Green functions from …

Within the upper mantle, the seismic discontinuity at 410-km depth marks the top of the
transition zone and is attributed to pressure-induced transformation of olivine into wadsleyite …

The Pacific Northwest has undergone complex plate reorganization and intense tectono‐
volcanic activity to the east during the Cenozoic (last 65 Ma). Here we show new high …

Flat subduction of the Farallon plate beneath the western United States during the Laramide
orogeny was caused by the combined effects of oceanic plateau subduction and unusually …

We use receiver functions calculated for data collected by the INDEPTH‐IV seismic array to
image the three‐dimensional geometry of the crustal and upper mantle velocity …

P-to-s receiver functions mapped to depth through P and S body-wave tomography models
image continuous 410 and 660km discontinuities beneath the area covered by USArray …
