The DeepDyn seminar takes place online as a zoom-meeting. DeepDyn members will automatically receive the access link before the seminar. We ask external seminar guests to register for the seminar in order to receive the access link.
speaker change (as of January 15, 2025)
Originally, a lecture by Bernhard Schuberth on "From Mantle Convection to Seismic Observations -- Simulating 3-D Wave Propagation in Geodynamic Earth Models" was planned for this event.
Unfortunately, Bernhard Schuberth is unable to attend due to a scheduling conflict. We were able to secure Ingo Stotz as an equivalent replacement for the seminar and are looking forward to his lecture.
Tracking mantle flow through geophysical and geological observations
Abstract
Understanding the internal dynamics, structure, and composition of our planet is a fundamental goal in Earth science. Geodynamic modelling has played a key role in this endeavor, offering a theoretical window into the Earth’s convective mantle at present-day and in the past. Here, I will introduce a fundamental analytical flow model designed to identify geological and geophysical datasets that are sensitive to the mantle flow. This model predicts asthenosphere flow and can be quantitatively link to observations, offering a clear expectation to where the model aligns well with geological and geophysical observations and where discrepancies occur.
