Discovery of flat seismic reflections in the mantle beneath the young Juan de Fuca Plate
Crustal properties of young oceanic lithosphere have been examined extensively, but the nature of the mantle lithosphere underneath remains elusive. Using a novel wide-angle seismic imaging technique, here we show the presence of two sub-horizontal reflections at ∼11 and ∼14.5 km below the seafloor...
