Seismological waveform data recorded by networks in Spain and Morocco are used to study seismicity and to image the velocity and attenuation structure of the lithosphere and upper mantle beneath the Africa-Iberia plate boundary zone using tomographic methods. An Mw = 6.0 earthqu…

In this thesis, I present my contribution towards the understanding of rifting processes responsible for the shaping of two tectonic environments. The first region of interest is the Basin-and-Ranges province, a region actively deforming in a wide rifting mode, and the second is…
Broadband seismic data from Ethiopia and the Arabian Shield have been used to image the seismic structure of the upper mantle beneath ∼70% of the Afar hotspot. In the northernmost area of the hotspot, the Arabian Shield, the results from a P wave tomography and a receiver functi…
The redox conditions of Earth have been changing since proto-Earth’s accretion from the solar nebula. These changes have influenced the distribution and partitioning of volatile elements between the atmosphere and the mantle (Righter et al., 2020; Stagno and Fei, 2020. Though ox…
