摘要
The structure of the European crust and upper mantle is precisely known only in limited regions. A new tomographic model for the entire European upper mantle identifies northeastward subduction of the Adria plate beneath the Dinarides Mountains, volcanism related to the upwelling Eifel hotspot and mantle delamination beneath Scandinavia.
