Upper Mantle Seismic Structure of Alaska From Rayleigh and <i>S</i> Wave Tomography
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Mantle shear velocity (Vs) structure beneath the Transportable Array (TA) in Alaska and northwestern Canada is imaged by joint inversion of Rayleigh wave dispersion and teleseismic S wave travel times. The study connects previously unsampled parts of northern and western Alaska with portions of southern Alaska imaged with earlier seismic arrays. The new Vs tomography shows contrasting lithospheric structure in the plate interior with lower Vs shallow upper mantle indicative of thinner thermal lithosphere south of the Brooks Range and along the transform margin. Higher Vs down to ~200 km beneath the Brooks Range and northern coast is consistent with the presence of a cold stable lithospheric root that may help guide intraplate deformation to the south. In the subduction‐to‐transform transition, a potential slab fragment is imaged beneath the Wrangell volcanic field where modern subduction has slowed due to the thick buoyant crust of the Yakutat terrane.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
