Geological and tectonic evolution of the Transantarctic Mountains, from ancient craton to recent enigma
JW Goodge - Gondwana Research, 2020 - Elsevier
Abstract The Transantarctic Mountains (TAM) are one of Earth's great mountain belts and
are a fundamental physiographic feature of Antarctica. They are continental-scale, traverse a …

The crust and upper mantle structure of central and West Antarctica from Bayesian inversion of Rayleigh wave and receiver functions
We construct a new seismic model for central and West Antarctica by jointly inverting
Rayleigh wave phase and group velocities along with P wave receiver functions. Ambient …

Trans-crustal structural control of CO2-rich extensional magmatic systems revealed at Mount Erebus Antarctica
GJ Hill, PE Wannamaker, V Maris, JA Stodt… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
Erebus volcano, Antarctica, with its persistent phonolite lava lake, is a classic example of an
evolved, CO2-rich rift volcano. Seismic studies provide limited images of the magmatic …
