Hotspots – large volcanic provinces – such as Iceland, Hawaii and Yellowstone, are almost universally assumed to come from plumes of hot mantle rising from deep within the Earth. At Iceland, perhaps the best-studied hotspot on Earth, this hypothesis... Read More about Plumes, or plate tectonic processes?.

Using a combination of body wave and surface wave data sets to reveal the mantle plume and plume head, this study presents a tomographic image of the mantle structure beneath Iceland to 400 km depth. Data comes primarily from the PASSCAL-HOTSPOT depl... Read More about Imaging the mantle beneath Iceland using integrated seismological techniques.

The continental lithospheric mantle: characteristics and significance as a mantle reservoir (2002)

The continental lithospheric mantle (CLM) is a small-volumed (ca. 2.5% of the total mantle), chemically distinct mantle reservoir that has been suggested to play a role in the source of continental and oceanic magmatism. It is our most easily identif... Read More about The continental lithospheric mantle: characteristics and significance as a mantle reservoir.

The initiation and early tectonic significance of the Outer Hebrides Fault Zone, Scotland (2002)

The Outer Hebrides Fault Zone is a major ESE-dipping detachment exposed within basement gneisses of the Archaean- Palaeoproterozoic Lewisian Complex, northwest Scotland. The fault zone exhibits a long-lived displacement history and was active during... Read More about The initiation and early tectonic significance of the Outer Hebrides Fault Zone, Scotland.
