Viscosity structure of the oceanic lithosphere inferred from the differential late Quaternary sea-level variations for the southern Cook Islands

Abstract: Late Quaternary sea-level variations for the southern Cook Islands such as Rarotonga and Mangaia provide information on the time-dependent crustal movement due to viscoelastic arching in response to loading by the Pleistocene volcanic island of Rarotonga. The lithospheric responses to both external and internal loads have been investigated to estimate the viscosity of the lower part of the lithosphere and to examine the initial stage of swell formation. Detailed observations of sea-level variations for the pas… Show more
