Using Seismic Tomography to Estimate the Magnitude of Lateral Variation in effective Mantle Viscosity
Recent tomographic views of mantle are used to estimate corresponding lateral variations in effective viscosity under the assumption that temperature fluctuations about spherically symmetric mean values are the sole source of shear wave velocity anomalies.

Present-day Antarctic Ice Mass Changes and Crustal Motion
The peak vertical velocities predicted by three realistic scenarios of Antarctic ice sheet mass balance are found to be of the order of several mm/a.
