Influence of mantle flow on the drainage of eastern Australia since the Jurassic Period
Published 2017-01-01Recent studies of the past eastern Australian landscape from present-day longitudinal river profiles and from mantle flow models suggest that the interaction of plate motion with mantle convection accounts for the two ...Open AccessArticle -
SPGM: A Scalable PaleoGeomorphology Model
Published 2018-01-01Numerical models of landscape evolution are playing an increasingly important role in providing an improved understanding of geomorphic transport processes shaping Earth's surface topography. Improving theoretical underpinnings ...Open AccessArticle -
The interplay of dynamic topography and eustasy on continental flooding in the late Paleozoic
Published 2019-06-20Global sea level change can be inferred from sequence stratigraphic and continental flooding data. These methods reconstruct sea level from peri-cratonic and cratonic basins that are assumed to be tectonically stable and ...Open AccessArticle -
Global tectonic reconstructions with continuously deforming and evolving rigid plates
Published 2018-07-01Traditional plate reconstruction methodologies do not allow for plate deformation to be considered. Here we present software to construct and visualize global tectonic reconstructions with deforming plates within the context ...Open AccessArticle -
Large fluctuations of shallow seas in low-lying Southeast Asia driven by mantle flow
Published 2016-09-13The Sundaland continental promontory, as the core of Southeast Asia, is one of the lowest lying continental regions, with half of the continental area presently inundated by a shallow sea. The role of mantle convection in ...Open AccessArticle
