The NoMelt experiment was designed to provide localized constraints on the lithosphere–asthenosphere system in a normal oceanic tectonic plate, far from the influence of melting, either at the ridge ...
Map views of P-wave azimuthal anisotropic velocity tomography. The orientation and length of the black bars represent the fast velocity direction and amplitude of azimuthal anisotropy, respectively.
This close-up view of the inner A ring shows intriguing variations in brightness along the direction of ring motion — from top to bottom. Close examination reveals dark regions that appear to widen ...
