The mantle under Africa: An overview of global and regional tomography models, lithosphere thickness models and their effect on present-day and past dynamic topography
Steinberger, Bernhard; Tetreault, Joya; Medvedev, Sergei; Buiter, Susanne (NGU-Rapport (2010.058), Report, 2010)The African plate is affected less by subduction than other plates and, as a consequence its surface experienced less subduction-related deformation while its mantle contains fewer subducted slabs. This region therefore ... -
Unravelling the effective elastic thickness of the Barents Sea
Buiter, Susanne (NGU-Rapport (2007.051), Report, 2008)The Barents Sea area is characterised by deep sedimentary basins and a relatively flat-lying crust-mantle interface. The load of such sedimentary basins is generally compensated by the strength of the crust and lithosphere. ...
