Intermediate-spin ferrous iron in lower mantle perovskite (2007, background): “Models to extract lower-mantle thermal structure and bulk chemical composition from seismic profiles depend sensitively on shear moduli and their pressure derivative”
Primary magmas and mantle temperatures through time (2017, background): “Though convection in the ambient mantle may have been subadiabatic, for example due to radiogenic heat production [Bunge, 2005; Mattern et al., 2005; Davies, 2009] (e.g., T decreases less than along an adiabat) or superadiabatic [DaSilva et al., 2000].”
Urey ratio and the structure and evolution of Earth's mantle (2008, background): “A promising attempt to formulate this complex geophysical inference with Bayesian statistics has been evolving in recent years [Deschamps and Trampert, 2004; Mattern et al., 2005; Matas et al., 2007].”
Joint inversion of seismic and gravity data for lunar composition and thermal state (2007, background): “Goes et al. 2000; Cammarano et al. 2003; Deschamps & Trampert 2004; Godey et al. 2004; Shapiro & Ritzwoller 2004; Trampert et al. 2004; Mattern et al. 2005).”
Thermodynamics of mantle minerals - II. Phase equilibria (2011, background): “Previous mantle models have either not specified elastic moduli other than the bulk modulus (Stixrude & Bukowinski 1993; Mattern et al. 2005; Piazzoni et al. 2007; Ganguly et al. 2009), or have done so non-self-consistently (Sobolev & Babeyko 1994; Kuskov 1995; Bina 1998; Hama & Suito 2001; Ricard…”
Thermal versus elastic heterogeneity in high‐resolution mantle circulation models with pyrolite composition: High plume excess temperatures in the lowermost mantle (2009, background): “…First, as noted before, internal heating in combination with the slow overturn of the mantle lowers the geotherm by 17 of 24 300–500 K compared to an adiabat [Jeanloz and Morris, 1987; Matyska and Yuen, 2000; Bunge et al., 2001;Monnereau and Yuen, 2002; Sleep, 2003; Mattern et al., 2005].”
