We present a uniform updated model of the European lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB) recalculated from data collected during our regional studies of seismic anisotropy and other tomographic experiments, and show results of mapping of large-scale domains of mantle lithosphere characterized by uniform fossil fabrics. Exploiting the long memory of the fabric of the deep continental lithosphere, we define the LAB as a boundary between a fossil anisotropy in the lithospheric mantle and an underlying seismic anisotropy related to present-day flow in the asthenosphere.
