Mean radius, mass, and inertia for reference Earth models

Moving in the Anthropocene: Global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements

“…The extent to 212 which animal movements are affected by anthropogenic changes in the structure and composition 213 of landscapes and resource changes has only been explored in local geographic regions or within 214 single species. Such studies typically report decreasing animal movements, for example due to 215 habitat fragmentation, barrier effects or resource changes (3)(4)(5)(6), with only a few studies reporting 216 longer movements as a result of habitat loss or altered migration routes (7,8). Here we conducted 217 a global comparative study examining how the human footprint affects movements of terrestrial 218 non-volant mammals using Global Positioning System (GPS) location data of 803 individuals 219 from 57 mammal species ( Fig.…”

Robust constraints on average radial lower mantle anisotropy and consequences for composition and texture

“…We introduced correlations between adjacent depth points, based on randomly perturbed PREM-gradients, to exclude physically implausible models and restrict the size of the model space. In addition, similar to PREM, we imposed constraints on the mass and moment of inertia of the earth models (Chambat and Valette, 2001).…”

Bayesian inversion of free oscillations for Earth’s radial (an)elastic structure

“…non-smooth or oscillatory, models and restrict the size of the model space. In addition, we impose constraints on the mass and moment of inertia of the earth models using estimates from Chambat and Valette (2001). The details of the parametrisation are given in A.…”

“…To avoid physically unrealistic 1-D density profiles, we constrain the mass and moment of inertia of the earth models using the error estimates reported by Chambat and Valette (2001). A model is discarded whenever its mass or moment of inertia does not lie within ð5:9733 AE 0:0090Þ Á 10 24 kg or ð8:018 AE 0:012Þ Á 10 37 kg m 2 , respectively.…”
