| Scope |
The life cycle of
oceanic lithosphere is controlled by asthenospheric dynamics, and
vice versa. Transdisciplinal study is essential for the true
understanding of the lithosphere/asthenosphere as a whole. We invite
contributions from the studying the seismology, electrical
conductivity, geodynamics, mineral physics, petrology, and
geochemistry of the lithosphere, the asthenosphere and/or the
boundary between. |
