Abstract

A combined geophysical‐petrological methodology to study the thermal, compositional, density, and seismological structure of lithospheric/sublithospheric domains is presented. A new finite‐element code (LitMod) is used to produce 2‐D forward models from the surface to the 410‐km discontinuity. The c...
