WINTERC-G: mapping the upper mantle thermochemical heterogeneity from coupled geophysical&ndash;petrological inversion of seismic waveforms, heat flow, surface elevation and gravity satellite data. Geophysical Journal International, 226(1), 146-191.</p> <p>*******************************<br> Summary: construction of the model.<br> WINTERC-G is a Waveform tomography and Gravity (geoid and gravity anomalies and gradiometric measurements<br> from ESA&#39;s GOCE mission) INversion model of the TEmpeRature and Composition of the lithosphere and upper mantle at<br> global scale. WINTERC-G is based on upon the integrated geophysical-petrological<br> approach LitMod (Afonso et al., 2008; Fullea et al. 2009) and, hence, all<br> relevant mantle rock physical properties modelled (seismic velocities and density) are<br> computed within a thermodynamically self-consistent framework allowing for a direct<br> parameterization in terms of the temperature and composition of the lithosphere-upper<br> mantle. The inversion is a two-step procedure. In a first step, we invert surface-wave, Rayleigh and Love<br> fundamental mode dispersion curves from a high resolution global dataset measured using waveform inversion,<br> along with surface heat flow and elevation (isostasy) for temperature and crustal structure<br> using a point-wise, non-linear, gradient-search inversion<br> over a triangular grid with an average 225 km lateral inter-knot spacing. In a second step we<br> use a fully parallelized spherical harmonic formalism to invert satellite gravity field data in<br> order to refine the initial crustal density and mantle composition distributions from the step 1<br> for a fixed temperature field.</p> <p>The parameter space in step 1 includes crust (densities and S-wave velocities for a three-layered crust)<br> &nbsp;and mantle variables (the depth of the thermal Lithosphere-Athenosphere-Boundary,<br> the thickness of the sublithospheric thermal buffer, the sublithospheric temperatures at 3 different<br> equispaced nodes down to 400 km, the lithospheric and sublithospheric mantle compositon, and<br> the the radial anisotropy at the 3 crustal layers and at 56, 80, 110, 150, 200, 260, 330,<br> and 400 km depths.</p> <p>The parameter space in step 2 is defined by the average crustal density, and the<br> mantle composition in the lithosphere and sublithosphere.<br> We use the output crustal density from step 1 as the<br> initial value in step 2 inversion. Mantle densities are derived based on the output temperature<br> field from step 1 (kept fixed) and the bulk mantle composition inversion variables.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>*******************************</p> <p>This archive contains the following files:<br> &nbsp;

Dataset and Software for The Relationships Between Large-scale Variations in Shear Velocity, Density, and Compressional Velocity in the Earth's Mantle

<p><strong>Is there a chemically distinct reservoir in the Earth?</strong><br><strong>Do superplumes overly denser-than-average material?</strong><br><strong>Can we detect these anomalies with seismic data?</strong><br><strong>Can we evaluate statistical significance of the features in tomography?</strong></p><p>This study presents the <strong>strongest evidence</strong> to date (ca. 2015) of <strong>large-scale thermo-chemical heterogeneities in the lowermost mantle</strong> using the full spectrum of seismic data. A large data set of surface-wave phase anomalies, body-wave travel times, normal-mode splitting functions and long-period waveforms is used to investigate the scaling between shear velocity, density and compressional velocity in the Earth's mantle (ϱ=dln ρ/dln vS, ν=dln vS/dln vP). Our preferred joint model consists of denser-than-average anomalies (∼1% peak-to-peak) at the base of the mantle roughly coincident with the low-velocity superplumes. The relative variation of shear velocity, density and compressional velocity in our study disfavors a purely thermal contribution to heterogeneity in the lowermost mantle, with implications for the long-term stability and evolution of superplumes.</p><p><strong>Note on Odd Degree Structure:</strong></p><p>Since the self-coupled normal-mode splitting observations constrain only even-degree density variations, all inversions strongly disfavored even-degree vS-ρ correlation (R2 ~ –0.46 to –0.25) in the lowermost mantle, which also disfavors a purely thermal contribution to heterogeneity in this region. However, the starting assumptions on positive vS-ρ correlation persisted&nbsp;in the remaining&nbsp;regions and for odd degree variations. In viscosity inversions with the geoid, opposing sign of the correlation of the longest wavelength even-versus odd-degree structure maps into a region of reduced viscosity in the lower mantle (Rudolph et al., 2020, doi:10.1029/2020gc009335). While important for such dynamical implications, <strong>odd-degree density variations in the lowermost mantle&nbsp;are poorly constrained in this study and should not be interpreted</strong>. We therefore used even-degree variations up to degree 6 for our inferences on&nbsp;thermo-chemical variations in the lowermost mantle (Figure 14), and provide those values in the files below.</p><p><strong>Feedback/Questions?</strong> Please contact Raj Moulik (<a href="https://rajmoulik.com">rajmoulik.com</a>) at <a href="mailto:moulik@caa.columbia.edu?subject=Query%20from%20Zenodo">moulik@caa.columbia.edu</a>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Reference:</strong></p><p><i>Please cite the following work if you use this data or software.</i></p><ul><li>Moulik, P. &amp; Ekström, G., 2016.

Density variations are allowed to deviate from a constant scaling with shear-velocity variations in the lowermost mantle, which is required to fit the longest-period normal modes (e.g.&nbsp;0S2). Radial anisotropy is confined to the uppermost mantle (that is, since the anisotropy is parameterized with only the four uppermost&nbsp;splines, it becomes very small below a depth of 250 km, and vanishes at 410 km).

Self-consistent models of Earth's mantle and core from long-period seismic and tidal constraints
