Vertical Motions at the Fringes of the Icelandic Plume
… Isostatic balances are then used to estimate residual topography at each station, taking into account these novel constraints on crustal density. Areas of significant residual topography are found in the northwestern British Isles (1400 m), southwestern Scandinavia (464 m) and Denmark (620 m), …

The crust and upper mantle structure of eastern Anatolia, Turkey from gravity modeling constrained by seismic data
… of a hot asthenosphere, the rapid uplift of topography and widespread volcanism across the region may indicate that lithospheric delamination and slab detachment occurred in Eastern Anatolia. The topography in Eastern Anatolian is not isostatically compensated. There is a residual topography …

Effects Of Subduction History On Mantle Convection: Implications For True Polar Wander And Dynamic Topography
… True Polar Wander (TPW), the geoid, and dynamic topography to observations. We explicitly calculate past mantle states using TERRA forward global geodynamic models that assimilate two different global plate reconstructions: a widely used model we call ‘Earthbyte’ and a recently developed …

Dynamic Topography of the Borborema Province, South America
… is corroborated by the presence of positive residual depth anomalies of 100s of meters which are observed along the abutting continental margin. Onshore, regional uplift is manifest by Albian marine limestones, which crop out at 700 m within the Araripe basin, and by emergent Oligo-Miocene …

Studying subduction zone dynamics and continental evolution in South America using data-oriented geodynamic models
… distribution of volcanisms, seismic anisotropy, topography and gravity, mineral physics, as well as geological data such as mountain shortening and paleo-altimetry. The synergy among all these disciplines not only increases the spatial and temporal coverage of the research topics, but also …
