Fig. 13From: Small-scale scattering heterogeneities beneath the northern Tien Shan from the teleseismic P wavefieldA cartoon illustrating the small-scale melt pockets (small red patches) supplied from upwelling mantle materials beneath the northern Tien Shan (NTS). These melt pockets represent the scattering heterogeneities responsible for the fluctuating P-wave coda. The rectangle approximately denotes the scattering regions of interest beneath the study area.
