Global adjoint tomography: first-generation model (2016, methodology): “In global tomography it is common to use spherical and cubic splines (e.g. Ritsema et al. 1999; Boschi & Ekström 2002; Lebedev et al. 2005; Kustowski et al. 2008; Ritsema et al. 2011), local cells (e.g. Zhou 1996; van der Hilst et al. 1997; Kennett et al. 1998) or triangular grid points (e.g. Zhou…”
Importance of crustal corrections in the development of a new global model of radial anisotropy (2010, methodology): “This approach was independently refined by Marone and Romanowicz [2007] and Kustowski et al. [2007], and implemented in the creation of two recent anisotropic models [Panning and Romanowicz, 2006; Kustowski et al., 2008].”

Whole-mantle radially anisotropic shear velocity structure from spectral-element waveform tomography (2014, methodology): “A similar result was obtained by Kustowski et al. (2008) in their tests of scalingfactor sensitivity.”
An anisotropic shear velocity model of the Earth's mantle using normal modes, body waves, surface waves and long-period waveforms (2014, methodology): “Kustowski et al. (2008) reported a severe trade-off between the radially anisotropic and isotropic variations in the lowermost mantle, even with the inclusion of several types of diverse data sets.”

Mantle dynamics and seismic anisotropy (2010, methodology): “Radial anisotropy deduced from surfacewaves is incorporated into both onedimensional reference Earth models (e.g., Dziewonski and Anderson, 1981) and into 3D seismic tomography (e.g., Nataf et al., 1984; Panning and Romanowicz, 2006; Kustowski et al., 2008).”
3-D shear wave radially and azimuthally anisotropic velocity model of the North American upper mantle (2011, background): “Although the minimum around 100 km depth is not resolved in previous global tomographic studies (Panning & Romanowicz 2006; Kustowski et al. 2008) or regional studies of the NA continent (e.g. MR07_1; Nettles & Dziewo´nski 2008; Bedle & van der Lee 2009), it is reported at similar depths in recent…”
Inferring upper-mantle structure by full waveform tomography with the spectral element method (2011, methodology): “Whether or not the authors restricted LPO formation to dislocation creep or both dislocation and diffusion creep, radial anisotropy peaked at 150 km depth, deeper than that in S362ANI and ND08.”

On establishing the accuracy of noise tomography travel‐time measurements in a realistic medium (2009, background): “Whereas this ray-theoretical description is quite simplified, it follows similar assumptions of many traditional tomographic studies (e.g. Ritsema et al. 2004; Kustowski et al. 2008) that obtain very realistic velocity structures.”
On the relationship between azimuthal anisotropy from shear wave splitting and surface wave tomography (2012, background): “tomography by Kustowski et al. [2008]. The correlation with the geodynamic prediction peaks at 0.”
