Lithospheric failure on Venus
Published 2003“…We develop a predictive model which has the ability to explain a postulated style of episodic plate tectonics on Venus, through the periodic occurrence of lithospheric subduction events. Present-day incipient subduction zones are associated with the existence of arcuate trenches on the Venusian lithosphere. …”

Adjoint tomography of the Italian lithosphere
Published 2022-03-01“…The distribution of fluids beneath the Apennines, the magmatic plumbing system of Mount Etna and the presence of two microplates within the Adriatic plate are interpreted by the application of full waveform adjoint tomography to the entire Italian lithosphere.…”

The hydrothermal power of oceanic lithosphere
Published 2015-10-01“…These estimates may bear on important problems in the physics and chemistry of the Earth because the magnitude of ventilated hydrothermal power affects chemical exchanges between the oceans and the lithosphere, thereby affecting both thermal and chemical budgets in the oceanic crust and lithosphere, the subduction factory, and the convective mantle.…”

CONSTRAINTS ON EXTENSION OF CONTINENTAL LITHOSPHERE
Published 1983“…For a given strain rate the extending lithosphere goes through two phases as the strain increases: in the first, the effect of thinning the lithosphere is predominant and the average strength of the lithosphere remains close to, and perhaps slightly below, its original strength; in the second, the effect of cooling of the lithosphere leads to very rapid increase in strength as a function of strain, resulting, presumably, in an effective limit on the degree of stretching that the lithosphere experiences.…”
