LIP formation and protracted lower mantle upwelling induced by rifting and delamination
Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) are commonly attributed to mantle plumes, hot upwellings from the deep lower mantle, apparently unrelated to plate motions. However, LIPs often form in association with rifting and breakup. Using numerical modelling, we introduce a novel idea that explains plume-like m...
