Lithosphere Destabilization and Small‐Scale Convection Constrained From Geophysical Data and Analogical Models

Abstract The destabilization of oceanic lithosphere by small scale convection at its base is important for providing a holistic picture of mantle/lithosphere coupling. We use three highly resolved tomography models to characterize the base of the oceanic lithosphere in the Pacific Ocean. Regions ass...
