Effect of water on seismic attenuation of the upper mantle: The origin of the sharp lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary

Oceanic lithosphere moves over a mechanically weak layer (asthenosphere) characterized by low seismic velocity and high attenuation. Near mid-ocean ridges, partial melting can produce such conditions because of the high-temperature geotherm. However, seismic observations have also shown a large and...
