Tomographic filtering of geodynamic models: Implications for model interpretation and largescale mantle structure
[1] The resolution operator R is a critical accompaniment to tomographic models of the mantle. R facilitates the comparison between conceptual three-dimensional velocity models and tomographic models because it can filter these theoretical models to the spatial resolution of the tomographic model. We compute R for the tomographic model S20RTS (Ritsema et al., 1999, 2004) and two companion model...
متن کاملA comparison of tomographic and geodynamic mantle models
[1] Abstract: We conduct a comprehensive and quantitative analysis of similarities and differences between recent seismic tomography models of the Earth’s mantle in an attempt to determine a benchmark for geodynamic interpretation. After a spherical harmonic expansion, we find the spectral power and radial correlation of each tomographic model as a function of depth and harmonic degree. We then...
متن کاملSubduction to the lower mantle – a comparison between geodynamic and tomographic models
It is generally believed that subduction of lithospheric slabs is a major contribution to thermal heterogeneity in Earth’s entire mantle and provides a main driving force for mantle flow. Mantle structure can, on the one hand, be inferred from plate tectonic models of subduction history and geodynamic models of mantle flow. On the other hand, seismic tomography models provide important informat...
متن کاملPractical Linear Models for Large-Scale One-Class Collaborative Filtering
Collaborative filtering has emerged as the de facto approach to personalized recommendation problems. However, a scenario that has proven difficult in practice is the one-class collaborative filtering case (OC-CF), where one has examples of items that a user prefers, but no examples of items they do not prefer. In such cases, it is desirable to have recommendation algorithms that are personaliz...
متن کاملNew evidence for dislocation creep from 3-D geodynamic modeling of the Pacific upper mantle structure
Laboratory studies on deformation of olivine in response to applied stress suggest two distinct deformation mechanisms in the earth’s upper mantle: diffusion creep through diffusion of atoms along grain boundaries and dislocation creep by slipping along crystallographic glide planes. Each mechanism has very different and important consequences on the dynamical evolution of the mantle and the de...
