Upper-mantle structure between 100 and 300 km depth below the northern Antarctic Peninsula is imaged by modelling P -wave traveltime residuals from teleseismic events recorded on the King Sejong Station (KSJ), the Argentinean/Italian stations (JUBA and ESPZ), an IRIS/GSN Station (PMSA) and the Seism...
