Abstract: Abstract We use the recent models of Titan’s shape and gravity to estimate the large-scale density structure of its outer ice shell. We assume that the bottom boundary of the ice shell is an equipotential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/ncomms15241
Abstract: Advances in our understanding of Earth's thermal evolution and the style of mantle convection rely on robust seismological constraints on lateral variations of density. The large-low-shear-wave velocity provinces (LLSVPs) atop the core–mantle boundary beneath Africa… read more here.

DOI: 10.2113/2024/lithosphere_2023_124
Abstract: Qiongdongnan Basin (QDNB), located at the northwestern corner of the South China Sea (SCS), is a key juncture between the extensional tectonic regime in the northern continental margin and the shear tectonic regime in the… read more here.
