Joint Analysis of Seismic and Electrical Observables Beneath the Central Appalachians Requires Partial Melt in the Upper Mantle

Abstract The Central Appalachian Anomaly (CAA) is a region of the upper mantle beneath eastern North America that exhibits pronounced anomalies in its seismic velocity, seismic attenuation, and electrical conductivity structure. The CAA clearly expresses itself in low velocity, high attenuation, and...
