New Insights Into Lithospheric Structure and Melting Beneath the Colorado Plateau
Abstract The Colorado Plateau and its surroundings serve as an archetypal case to investigate the interaction of mantle melting processes and lithospheric structure. It has been hypothesized that widespread Cenozoic volcanism indicates the encroachment of the convective upwelling of asthenosphere to...
