Rheology of the Earth's mantle: A historical review (2010, background): “Stixrude and Lithgow-Bertelloni (2005) conducted essentially the same analysis as Birch (1952) using more complete data base, and argued that the influence of anelasticity is not large (see also Fig.”
Thermodynamics of mantle minerals - II. Phase equilibria (2011, methodology): “…Paper I, overcomes these limitations of previous approaches to mantle thermodynamics as illustrated by application of earlier forms of the theory (Stixrude & Lithgow-Bertelloni 2005a; Khan et al. 2006; Stixrude & Lithgow-Bertelloni 2007; Cobden et al. 2008; Xu et al. 2008; Cammarano et al. 2009;…”
Implications of grain size evolution on the seismic structure of the oceanic upper mantle (2008, methodology): “By utilizing 336 the Stixrude & Lithgow-Bertelloni (2005) expression for V∞ in Eq.”
Influence of phase transformations on lateral heterogeneity and dynamics in Earth's mantle (2007, methodology): “As in our previous work, which extended to a depth of 500 km (Stixrude and Lithgow-Bertelloni, 2005b), the amount of cpx appears to be underestimated as compared with experiment and this is likely due to the neglect of the jadeite component of cpx in our study.”
Integrated geophysical‐petrological modeling of the lithosphere and sublithospheric upper mantle: Methodology and applications (2008, methodology): “The thermodynamic database we use here [Stixrude and Lithgow-Bertelloni, 2005a] does not account for Cr2O3, but it predicts plagioclase-spinel-garnet phase transitions that are consistent to a first order with experimental data on natural peridotites with a wide range of compositions [e.g., Green…”
On the origin of the asthenosphere (2012, background): “Consequently, several studies examined the effects of high temperature on the mechanical properties (particularly seismic wave velocities and attenuation) (e.g., Faul and Jackson, 2005; Schubert et al., 1976; Stixrude and Lithgow-Bertelloni, 2005).”
