Spatial variations of effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere in Central America and surrounding regions

Spatial variations of effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere in Central America and surrounding regions

As a proxy for long-term lithospheric strength, the effective elastic thickness (Te) can be used to understand the relationship between lithospheric rheology and geodynamic evolution of complex tectonic settings. Here we present, for the first time, high-resolution maps of spatial variations of Te i...
