Upper-mantle earthquakes beneath the arafura sea and south aru trough: Implications for continental rheology
The extent and controls of long-term elastic strength and seismicity in the upper continental lithospheric mantle (UCLM) are controversial topics in continental tectonics. One key issue is the scarcity of UCLM earthquakes, even where the UCLM is likely to be colder than 600°C. The rarity of these ea...
