Temperature, lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary, and heat flux beneath the Antarctic Plate inferred from seismic velocities (2015, background): “The lithosphere is considered decoupled from the weaker asthenosphere, but the mechanism that underlies the decrease in material strength at the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary remains debated [Green et al., 2010; Karato, 2012].”
On the origin of the asthenosphere (2012, background): “Melting relationship of upper mantle rocks has been studied in detail (e.g., Dasgupta and Hirschmann, 2007; Green et al., 2010; Hirschmann et al., 2009; Kushiro, 2001; Mierdel et al., 2007; Plank and Langmuir, 1992), and the following picture is well established (for a review see Hirschmann, 2010):…”
