“…The density of the seismic station coverage in Alaska and northwestern Canada has significantly increased with the deployment of the EarthScope USArray since 2014. Numerous models exist for this region in both continental and regional scales, which provide constraints on the lithospheric structure (e.g., Berg et al., 2020; Feng, 2021; Feng & Ritzwoller, 2019; Gama et al., 2021; Gou et al., 2019; Martin‐Short et al., 2018; Nayak et al., 2020; Ward & Lin, 2018; Yang & Gao, 2020), the thickness variations of the crust and lithosphere (e.g., Allam et al., 2017; Audet et al., 2020; Miller et al., 2018; Miller & Moresi, 2018; Torne et al., 2020; Zhang et al., 2019), and the topography of the mantle transitional zone (e.g., Dahm et al., 2017; Van Stiphout et al., 2019).…”
