Integrated geophysical‐petrological modeling of the lithosphere and sublithospheric upper mantle: Methodology and applications (2008, methodology): “A number of recent papers addressed these topics individually using different approaches [e.g., Niu, 2004; Ritzwoller et al., 2004; Faul and Jackson, 2005; Huang and Zhong, 2005; Stixrude and Lithgow-Bertelloni, 2005a; Priestley and McKenzie, 2006; Afonso et al., 2007; Simon et al., 2008; Yang et…”
On the effect of temperature and strain-rate dependent viscosity on global mantle flow, net rotation, and plate-driving forces (2006, unknown): “The idea is to study the effect of LVVs for a generic set-up that purposefully does not account for details, such as shallow structure within oceanic plates (e.g. Ritzwoller et al. 2004).”
On the origin of the asthenosphere (2012, methodology): “The thickness of this layer depends on the melt production rate and the age of the lithosphere, and is estimated to be ~0.1–1 km for ~0.1–1% partial melting at the age of ~100 Myrs (Supplemental Materials II).”
Temperature, lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary, and heat flux beneath the Antarctic Plate inferred from seismic velocities (2015, background): “…of 50–70Ma (Figure 11a) is similar to that found in the Pacific Plate where there is a sudden change in the rate of increasing lithosphere thickness [Ritzwoller et al., 2004]; however, our results show a sharp fluctuation rather than an inflection in the flattened profile for the lithospheric base.”
Thermodynamic constraints on seismic inversions (2004, methodology): “(a)–(c) Results of the surface wave inversion for a location in the southern Pacific ocean (44 • S, 134 • W).”
3‐D multiobservable probabilistic inversion for the compositional and thermal structure of the lithosphere and upper mantle. I: a priori petrological information and geophysical observables (2013, methodology): “We have regressed the data with both linear and polynomial models using a robust regression method based on an iterative weighted leastsquares algorithm with a bisquare weight function [Rousseeuw and Leroy, 2003].”
