On transient rheology and glacial isostasy

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1986
Theoretical predictions from analytical, self‐gravitating, layered earth models with Maxwell, Burgers' body, and standard linear solid rheologies are employed to explore the extent to which transient creep may have influenced the inference of long‐term mantle viscosity from analysis of the various signatures derived from the process of glacial ...

Sea levels and uplift rate from composite rheology in glacial isostatic adjustment modeling

Journal of Geodynamics, 2010
Abstract Since laboratory experiments point to the existence of both diffusion creep and power-law creep at realistic mantle conditions, a composite rheology in which both mechanisms operate at the same time so that their strains are combined might be more realistic and has in the past been shown to provide a better fit to observations of glacial ...

In search of an ice history that is consistent with composite rheology in Glacial Isostatic Adjustment modelling

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2019
Abstract Global reconstructions of the Earth's Quaternary ice sheet history such as ICE-6G assume that mantle rheology is linear and Earth properties are laterally homogeneous. However, these assumptions are unrealistic because high temperature/pressure creep experiments show that both linear and non-linear creep laws operate simultaneously in the ...

New constraints on transient lower mantle rheology and internal mantle buoyancy from glacial rebound data

Nature, 1985
A model of mantle rheology which has an explicit transient component of its relaxation spectrum is shown to reconcile two apparently conflicting inferences of lower mantle viscosity. If recent analyses of isostatic geoid anomalies are correct in requiring a large increase of viscosity with depth, then the weak viscosity stratification demanded by ...

Mantle rheology and satellite signatures from present‐day glacial forcings

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1988
We study the changes of the long‐wavelength portion of the Earth's gravity field as a result of present‐day glacial discharges and the possible growth of the Antarctic ice sheet. We employ both Maxwell and Burgers' body rheologies and find that there are significant differences in the responses between the two rheologies for time spans less than a ...

Use of a viscous model of till rheology to describe gravitational loading instabilities in glacial sediments

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2000
Abstract This paper models the operation of loading (Rayleigh-Taylor) instabilities in sediments using an effective-pressure-dependent viscosity such has been used to model the deformation of sediment beneath glaciers. A particular feature is a strong increase of viscosity with depth, resulting from the fact that the effective pressure ...

Rheology of Mantle and Lithosphere Inferred from Post-Glacial Uplift in Fennoscandia

1991
The earth’s response to glacial loading/unloading offers exceptional promise for the study of the physical properties of the lithosphere and mantle because aspects of the isostatic adjustment are very sensitive to mantle rheology and, to a lesser degree, lithosphere thickness.

Shallow-earth rheology from glacial isostasy and satellite gravity: A sensitivity analysis for GOCE

2008
In recent years, satellite gravity missions have been launched that probe the earth's long- to mediumwavelength (1000 - 500 km) gravity field. The upcoming ESA satellite gravity mission GOCE is predicted to measure the gravity field with an accuracy of a few centimeters at spatial scales of 100 km.
