Mangrove forests are one of the world's most threatened tropical ecosystems with global
loss exceeding 35%(ref.). Juvenile coral reef fish often inhabit mangroves,,,, but the …

Seismic data provide images of crust–mantle interactions during ongoing removal of the
dense batholithic root beneath the southern Sierra Nevada mountains in California. The …

The seismic discontinuity at 410 km depth in the Earth's mantle is generally attributed to the
phase transition of (Mg, Fe) 2SiO4 (refs,) from the olivine to wadsleyite structure. Variation in …

Systematic stacks of P wave receiver functions (Pds) for 118 global seismic stations yield
new transition zone thickness (WTZ) estimates, as measured by the difference in depths …

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 …

Earth is unique among the Terrestrial planets in having liquid water on its surface. Water
controls the entire character of the biology and geology of the planet. Without liquid water …

The origin of midplate and along-ridge melting anomalies is controversial. Hypotheses
involve, at one extreme, concentrated hot mantle upwellings from the deepest mantle and, at …

The widespread presumption that the Farallon plate subducted along the base of North
American lithosphere under most of the western United States and∼ 1000 km inboard from …

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 …

Until now, modelling of three-dimensional (3-D) velocity variations in the mantle and
topography of the transition zone discontinuities have been considered separately. Velocity …
