A seismic study of lithospheric flexure in the vicinity of Tenerife, Canary Islands
Seismic data have been used to determine the crustal and upper mantle structure of Tenerife, Canary Islands, a volcanic island of Tertiary age located on > 140 Ma oceanic crust. Reflection data show that oceanic basement dips gently towards the island, forming a flexural moat which is infille...
