Seismic evidence for a plume-modified oceanic lithosphere–asthenosphere system beneath Cape Verde

SUMMARY We determine a new 3-D shear wave velocity (Vs) model down to 400 km depth beneath the Cape Verde hotspot that is far from plate boundaries. This Vs model is obtained by using a new method of jointly inverting P- and S-wave receiver functions, Rayleigh-wave phase-velocity data and S-wave arr...
