Asymmetric seafloor depth across the Juan de Fuca Ridge caused by lithospheric heating
Abstract Previous studies attribute asymmetries across the East Pacific Rise to horizontal temperature or pressure gradients in the deep asthenosphere caused by the Pacific Superswell, which, however, cannot explain asymmetries observed across the Juan de Fuca Ridge. Here, we provide seismic evidenc...
