Mantle plumes and their role in Earth processes
The existence of mantle plumes was first proposed in the 1970s to explain intra-plate,
hotspot volcanism, yet owing to difficulties in resolving mantle upwellings with geophysical …

Subducted oceanic crust as the origin of seismically slow lower-mantle structures
Mantle tomography reveals the existence of two large low-shear-velocity provinces
(LLSVPs) at the base of the mantle. We examine here the hypothesis that they are piles of …

Evidence for a Kilometer‐Scale Seismically Slow Layer Atop the Core‐Mantle Boundary From Normal Modes
Geodynamic modeling and seismic studies have highlighted the possibility that a thin layer
of low seismic velocities, potentially molten, may sit atop the core‐mantle boundary but has …

Model order reduction for seismic waveform modelling: inspiration from normal modes
The computational cost of full waveform simulation in seismological contexts is known to be
expensive and generally requires large clusters of computers working in parallel. Although …

An analysis of core–mantle boundary Stoneley mode sensitivity and sources of uncertainty
Stoneley modes are a special subset of normal modes whose energy is confined along the
core–mantle boundary (CMB). As such, they offer a unique glimpse into Earth structure at …
