Study of the Earth's Deep Interior Section Award for Graduate Research
Received 2022
Shangxin Liu’s research has shed new light on the role of subducted slabs and shallow, slow–wave speed anomalies in the dynamics of the North American plate. In his 2022 Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems paper, Shangxin showed that large-scale man...
