Stability of active mantle upwelling revealed by net characteristics of plate tectonics 
Conrad, Clinton P.; Steinberger, Bernard; Torsvik, Trond Helge (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)
Viscous convection within the mantle is linked to tectonic plate motions and deforms Earth’s surface across wide areas. Such close links between surface geology and deep mantle dynamics presumably operated throughout Earth’s ...
A Precambrian microcontinent in the Indian Ocean 
Torsvik, Trond Helge; Amundsen, Hans; Hartz, Ebbe Hvidegård; Corfu, Fernando; Kusznir, Nick; Gaina, Carmen; Dubrovin, Pavel; Steinberger, Bernard; Ashwal, Lewis D.; Jamtveit, Bjørn (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)
The Laccadive–Chagos Ridge and Southern Mascarene Plateau in the north-central and western Indian Ocean, respectively, are thought to be volcanic chains formed above the Réunion mantle plume1 over the past 65.5 million ...
Subduction to the lower mantle - a comparison between geodynamic and tomographic models 
Steinberger, Bernard; Torsvik, Trond Helge; Becker, Thorsten W. (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)
It is generally believed that subduction of lithospheric slabs is a major contribution to thermal heterogeneity in Earth's entire mantle and provides a main driving force for mantle flow. Mantle structure can, on the one ...
Possible links between long-term geomagnetic variations and whole-mantle convection processes 
Biggin, Andrew J.; Steinberger, Bernard; Aubert, Julien; Suttie, Neil; Holme, Richard; Torsvik, Trond Helge; van der Meer, Douwe G.; Van Hinsbergen, Douwe (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)
The Earth's internal magnetic field varies on timescales of months to billions of years. The field is generated by convection in the liquid outer core, which in turn is influenced by the heat flowing from the core into the ...
A geodynamic model of plumes from the margins of Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces 
Steinberger, Bernard; Torsvik, Trond Helge (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)
We present geodynamic models featuring mantle plumes that are almost exclusively created at the margins of large thermo‐chemical piles in the lowermost mantle. The models are based on subduction locations and fluxes inferred ...
Why is the areoid like the residual geoid? 
Burke, Kevin; Werner, Stephanie; Steinberger, Bernard; Torsvik, Trond Helge (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)
The equipotential figures of Earth (residual geoid), and of Mars (areoid) are characterized by pairs of elevated and pairs of depressed antipodal equatorial regions. Elevated regions of the residual geoid lie vertically ...
Phanerozoic polar wander, palaeogeography and dynamics 
Torsvik, Trond Helge; Van der Voo, Rob; Preeden, Ulla; Mac Niocaill, Conall; Steinberger, Bernard; Van Hinsbergen, Douwe; Domeier, Mathew; Gaina, Carmen; Tohver, Eric; Meert, Joseph G.; McCausland, Phil J. A.; Cocks, Robin L. M.; Dubrovin, Pavel (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)
A significant number of new palaeomagnetic poles have become available since the last time a compilation was made (assembled in 2005, published in 2008) to indicate to us that a new and significantly expanded set of tables ...
Absolute plate motions in a reference frame defined by moving hot spots in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian oceans 
Steinberger, Bernard; Torsvik, Trond Helge; Dubrovin, Pavel (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)
We defined a new global moving hot spot reference frame (GMHRF), using a comprehensive set of radiometric dates from arguably the best‐studied hot spot tracks, refined plate circuit reconstructions, a new plate polygon ...
Deep versus shallow origin of gravity anomalies, topography and volcanism on Earth, Venus and Mars 
Steinberger, Bernard; Werner, Stephanie; Torsvik, Trond Helge (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2010)
The relation between gravity anomalies, topography and volcanism can yield important insights about the internal dynamics of planets. From the power spectra of gravity and topography on Earth, Venus and Mars we infer that ...
Diamonds sampled by plumes from the core-mantle boundary 
Torsvik, Trond Helge; Burke, K; Steinberger, Bernard; Webb, Susan J; Ashwal, Lewis D. (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2010)
Diamonds are formed under high pressure more than 150 kilometres deep in the Earth’s mantle and are brought to the surface mainly by volcanic rocks called kimberlites. Several thousand kimberlites have been mapped on various ...
Toward an explanation for the present and past locations of the poles 
Steinberger, Bernard; Torsvik, Trond Helge (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2010)
Earth's orientation relative to its spin axis is determined by its nonhydrostatic inertia tensor. We show here that the present‐day nonhydrostatic inertia tensor can be modeled by combining contributions due to large low ...
Plate tectonics and net lithosphere rotation over the past 150 My 
Torsvik, Trond Helge; Steinberger, Bernard; Gurnis, M; Gaina, Carmen (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2010)
We have developed an improved model of global digital palaeo-plate boundaries and plate motion to describe the distribution and history of plates since the Late Jurassic. From this history we computed net lithospheric ...
