Naming the discontinuities

edit

I have been unable to find a source beyond this very badly made graphic. The person who made it did a very bad job of spelling them, which makes it all the more annoying because that picture has been cited thousands of times on so many websites. If someone can find a source for the name Repetti, I'd love to see it. ItsTact (talk) 17:38, 25 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

These old pages show that his thesis is indeed being cited by many for his "discovery?" of a discontinuity in the mantle regions, but it's hard to know if any official literature names it after him. ItsTact (talk) 17:47, 25 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
