Multigenetic Origin of the X‐Discontinuity Below Continents: Insights From African Receiver Functions
Abstract Constraints on chemical heterogeneities in the upper mantle may be derived from studying the seismically observable impedance contrasts that they produce. Away from subduction zones, several causal mechanisms are possible to explain the intermittently observed X‐discontinuity (X) at 230–350...
