Effect of GIA models with 3D composite mantle viscosity on GRACE mass balance estimates for Antarctica (2015, background): “Another interesting approach is that of Priestley and McKenzie (2013), who estimate viscosity directly from shear wave velocity models and geophysical and petrological data.”
Global dynamic topography observations reveal limited influence of large-scale mantle flow (2016, unknown): “0 database assuming constant lithospheric thickness of 125 km [9]; red line = as before but using variable lithospheric thickness [10]; blue line = as before where lithosphere thicker than 175 km is depleted by 10 kg m−3; green line = as before with depletion of 30 kg m−3.”
Temperature, lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary, and heat flux beneath the Antarctic Plate inferred from seismic velocities (2015, background): “The supporting information in a later publication [Priestley and McKenzie, 2013] shows that the converted temperature can be too low at depths of 150 km beneath old continents or too high beneath young oceanic lithosphere.”
