Dynamics of the North American Plate: Large‐Scale Driving Mechanism From Far‐Field Slabs and the Interpretation of Shallow Negative Seismic Anomalies
GEOCHEMISTRY, GEOPHYSICS, GEOSYSTEMS
03 march 2022
Shangxin Liu, Scott D. King
With a small fraction of marginal subduction zones, the driving mechanism for the North American plate motion is in debate. We construct global man...
