“…MLDs have been associated with formation and thickening of cratonic nuclei (Abt et al, 2010;Fischer et al, 2010;Miller and Eaton, 2010;Yuan and Romanowicz, 2010;Snyder et al, 2013;Cooper and Miller, 2014;Wirth and Long, 2014). If they represent palaeo-LABs prior to root thickening, azimuthal anisotropy could result by the same mechanisms as proposed for modern LABs, i.e.…”

“…Discontinuities in seismic velocity and anisotropy in the crust and upper mantle are imaged using receiver functions (RF), based on different arrival times for primary and converted P-and S-waves (termed PRF and SRF, respectively) and back-azimuthal differences in amplitudes (Kind et al, 2012;Wirth and Long, 2014;Selway et al, 2015).…”
