a Geotherms and map of locations. Uncertainties on the lithospheric thickness are shown with the vertical bars. The lithospheric thicknesses in the models are 88.5 ± 5.9 km, 88.8 ± 7.9, 102.2 ± 6.0, and 108.9 ± 8.1. b Shear-wave velocity profiles. The average adiabatic temperature profile for the mantle77 and the AK135 velocity model99 are included in panels (a) and (b), respectively.
