Solid tidal friction above a liquid water reservoir as the origin of the south pole hotspot on Enceladus

G Tobie, O Čadek, C Sotin - Icarus, 2008 - Elsevier
Earth, Jupiter's moon Io and Saturn's tiny moon Enceladus are the only solid objects in the
Solar System to be sufficiently geologically active for their internal heat to be detected by …

Surface loading of a viscoelastic earth—I. General theory

J Tromp, JX Mitrovica - Geophysical Journal International, 1999 - academic.oup.com
We present a new normal-mode formalism for computing the response of an aspherical, self-
gravitating, linear viscoelastic earth model to an arbitrary surface load. The formalism makes …

packages for the modelling of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) on a self-gravitating …

Glaciation‐induced perturbations in the Earth's rotation: A new appraisal

JX Mitrovica, GA Milne - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
We revisit the theory and predictions of glaciation‐induced perturbations in both the rotation
rate of the Earth (or) and the wander of the rotation pole with respect to the surface …

Formation of the lunar fossil bulges and its implication for the early Earth and Moon

C Qin, S Zhong, R Phillips - Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
First recognized by Laplace over two centuries ago, the Moon's present tidal‐rotational
bulges are significantly larger than hydrostatic predictions. They are likely relics of a former …
