LINKS BETWEEN LONG‐LIVED HOT SPOTS, MANTLE PLUMES, D″, AND PLATE TECTONICS (2004, methodology): “…hereinafter) we extend previous laboratory investigations of thermochemical convection [e.g., Olson and Kincaid, 1991; Davaille, 1999a, 1999b; Davaille et al., 2002; Gonnermann et al., 2002; Davaille et al., 2003; Wenzel et al., 2004] to the situation in which a dense layer is thin and has a…”
Dynamics and evolution of the deep mantle resulting from thermal, chemical, phase and melting effects (2012, background): “…plumes forming from the top of dense ridges are more fixed than purely thermal plumes (Davaille et al., 2002; Jellinek and Manga, 2002), although Davaille et al. (2002) point out that the dense material is swept around by the large-scale flow and thus the dense material acts as a “floating…”
Thermal versus elastic heterogeneity in high‐resolution mantle circulation models with pyrolite composition: High plume excess temperatures in the lowermost mantle (2009, background): “…and to illuminate the dynamic consequences of a dense component in the deep mantle [Hansen and Yuen, 1989, 1994, 2000; Montague and Kellogg, 2000; Davaille et al., 2002; Stegman et al., 2002; Jellinek and Manga, 2004; Nakagawa and Tackley, 2004; McNamara and Zhong, 2004, 2005; Farnetani and…”
