Constraining structures on a range of length scales and understanding their physical and chemical causes is a prerequisite for understanding the relationship between near surface and deeper mantle processes. One can expect that, eventually, full wave tomography (e.g., De Hoop and van der Hilst 2005; De Hoop et al. 2006; Tromp et al. 2005; Zhao and Jordan 2006) with broadband...
