Linear deformation laws have been applied to post glacial rebound, while many speculations based on real rock samples support non-linear rheology in the upper mantle. Essential information is required to support the assumed constitutive relation.

GEORGIA: A Graph Neural Network Based EmulatOR for Glacial Isostatic Adjustment
Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) modeling is not only useful for understanding past relative sea‐level change but also for projecting future sea‐level change due to ongoing land deformation.

Ice-age ice-sheet rheology: constraints from the Last Glacial Maximum form of the Laurentide ice sheet [PDF]
AbstractState-of-the-art thermomechanical models of the modern Greenland ice sheet and the ancient Laurentide ice sheet that covered Canada at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) are not able to explain simultaneously the observed forms of these cryospheric structures when the same, anisotropy-enhanced, version of the conventional Glen flow law is employed ...

Seismic response of the geologically complex alluvial valley at the "Europarco Business Park" (Rome - Italy) through instrumental records and numerical modelling [PDF]
The analysis of the local seismic response in the “Europarco Business Park”, a recently urbanized district of Rome (Italy) developed over the alluvial valley of the “Fosso di Vallerano” stream, is here presented.

The future is Nye: an extension of the perfect plastic approximation to tidewater glaciers
Accurate modeling of calving glaciers relies on knowledge of many processes (ice flow, surface/submarine melting, calving, mélange interaction) and glacier-specific factors (air temperature, ocean circulation, precipitation rate, glacier geometry) that ...

A global semi-empirical glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) model based on Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) data [PDF]
The effect of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) on the shape and gravity of the Earth is usually described by numerical models that solve for both glacial evolution and Earth's rheology, being mainly constrained by the geological evidence of local ice ...

Geodetic Observations of Time‐Variable Glacial Isostatic Adjustment in Southeast Alaska and Its Implications for Earth Rheology [PDF]
AbstractGlobal Positioning System observations in Southeast Alaska show evidence for interannual variations in uplift rates, which are consistent with an acceleration of mass loss rates across the region from the 1990s to 2012. We constructed an updated regional loading model based on updated twentieth century average deglaciation estimates. This model

Effects of mantle rheologies on viscous heating induced by Glacial Isostatic Adjustment
It has been argued that viscous dissipation from mantle flow in response to surface loading during glacial cycles can result in short-term heating and thus trigger transient volcanism or changes in mantle properties, which may in turn affect mantle dynamics. Furthermore, heating near the Earth's surface can also affect the stability of ice sheets.

Modelling of mantle postglacial relaxation in axisymmetric geometry with a composite rheology and a glacial load interpolated by adjusted spherical harmonics analysis [PDF]
SUMMARY Although studies on glacial isostatic adjustment usually assume a purely linear rheology, we have previously shown that mantle relaxation after the melting of Laurentide ice sheet is better described by a composite rheology including a non-linear term.
