Seismological insights into the building of the Lesser Antilles Arc
Subduction is a key process in the formation of continental crust. However, the interaction of the mantle with the subducting slab is not fully understood and varies between subduction zones. In this thesis I use seismological techniques to investigate subduction beneath the Lesser Antilles Arc (LAA...
