Seismically imaged lithospheric delamination and its controls on the Mesozoic Magmatic Province in South China

Abstract The current lithospheric root of the South China Block has been partly removed, yet what mechanisms modified the lithospheric structure remain highly controversial. Here we use a new joint seismic inversion algorithm to image tabular high-velocity anomalies at depths of ~90–150 km in the as...
