A SELF-CONSISTENT 2-D MODEL FOR THE DIP ANGLE OF MANTLE DOWNFLOW BENEATH AN OVERRIDING CONTINENT

Trubitsyn V.P.; Rykov V.V.; Jacoby W.R. (1999)

We demonstrate how the inclination of descending mantle flow is affected by thepresence of a continent overriding the downwelling zone. The mantle is modelled by a fluidhaving a temperature- and pressure-dependent viscosity ...
CONTINENTAL COLLISION AND THE DYNAMIC AND THERMAL EVOLUTION OF THE VARISCAN OROGENIC CRUSTAL ROOT - NUMERICAL MODELS

Arnold J.; Jacoby W.R.; Schmeling H.; Schott B. (2001)

Orogeny is modelled numerically by treating continental collision within full convection solutions, in order to better understand some aspects of the Variscan structures and processes. Three different approaches are taken: ...
EASTERN PONTIDES AND BLACK SEA: GRAVITY INVERSION, CRUSTAL STRUCTURE, ISOSTASY AND GEODYNAMICS

Çavşak H.; Şeren A.; Jacoby W.R. (2002)

Lacking detailed seismic data on the crustal structure of Anatolia and the transition to the Black Sea, it is attempted to invert gravity for crust-mantle structure with constraints from the limited a priori information ...
SUCCESSES AND FAILURES IN GEODYNAMICS: FROM PAST TO FUTURE

Jacoby W.R. (2001)

The evolution of Earth models is reviewed and the open questions and problems are highlighted. Generally, evolution of science was not linear, but proceeded in “steps” of paradigms; where old ones remained within useful ...
