A NW-SE elongated anomaly is imaged overlying the core-mantle boundary below the Red Sea and most of Arabia, which we here define for the first time as the Al Jawf anomaly (Figure A5). Resolution tests show that the anomaly is … Continue reading →
The Algeria anomaly (Figure A4) is a detached slab located below NW Africa and the Mediterranean from the deep mantle up to mid-mantle and was first described by van der Meer et al. (2010). The neighbouring base of the Emporios … Continue reading →
The Aleutian anomaly (Figure A3) is located in the upper mantle below the southern Bering Sea and Alaska and connects to the surface in the Aleutian subduction zone. It was previously identified in the upper mantle (Gorbatov et al., 2000; … Continue reading →
The Aegean anomaly (Figure A1-1) was previously called ‘Aegean Tethys’ by van der Meer et al. (2010) and is located below south-east Europe from the deep lower mantle up to the surface at the Hellenic subduction zone. It was one of … Continue reading →
