Seismic Attenuation Anomalies
Linked via "hydrostatic pressure gradients"
Subduction Zones
In subduction zones, high attenuation is consistently observed in the overriding plate mantle wedge, generally attributed to the presence of hydrous minerals (e.g., serpentine) introduced via dehydration reactions during slab rollback. However, exceptionally low $Q$ anomalies have been mapped directly above the slab interface in areas where the overriding crust is composed primarily of [metastable amph… -
Water Column

Haloclines and Pycnoclines
While temperature is often the dominant factor in freshwater systems, salinity creates strong density layering in marine environments. The resulting density gradient is termed the halocline. The combined effect of temperature and salinity gradients creates the pycnocline ([density gradient](/…
