[HTML][HTML] Atlas of the underworld: Slab remnants in the mantle, their sinking history, and a new outlook on lower mantle viscosity
Across the entire mantle we interpret 94 positive seismic wave-speed anomalies as
subducted lithosphere and associate these slabs with their geological record. We document …

Subduction-transition zone interaction: A review
As subducting plates reach the base of the upper mantle, some appear to flatten and
stagnate, while others seemingly go through unimpeded. This variable resistance to slab …

A review of applications of fractional calculus in Earth system dynamics
Fractional calculus has been used to model various hydrologic processes for 15 years. Yet,
there are still major gaps between real-world hydrologic dynamics and fractional-order …

Possible links between long-term geomagnetic variations and whole-mantle convection processes
The Earth's internal magnetic field varies on timescales of months to billions of years. The
field is generated by convection in the liquid outer core, which in turn is influenced by the …

Continental crust formation on early Earth controlled by intrusive magmatism
The global geodynamic regime of early Earth, which operated before the onset of plate
tectonics, remains contentious. As geological and geochemical data suggest hotter Archean …

The North American Late Wisconsin ice sheet and mantle viscosity from glacial rebound analyses
K Lambeck, A Purcell, S Zhao - Quaternary Science Reviews, 2017 - Elsevier
Observations of sea level and crustal response to glacial loading cycles provide constraints
on the mantle rheology function, E, and as well as on the ice load, I, with the latter being …

Underpinning tectonic reconstructions of the western Mediterranean region with dynamic slab evolution from 3‐D numerical modeling
No consensus exists on the tectonic evolution of the western Mediterranean since~ 35 Ma.
Three disparate tectonic evolution scenarios are identified, each portraying slab rollback as …
