Olivine anisotropy suggests Gutenberg discontinuity is not the base of the lithosphere
Tectonic plates are a key feature of Earth’s structure, and their behavior and dynamics are fun-damental drivers in a wide range of large-scale processes. The operation of plate tectonics in gen-eral depends intimately on the manner in which lithospheric plates couple to the convecting inte-rior. Cu...
