Data visualisations are graphical representations of scientific data, using tools like axes, scales, and colour gradients to quantify and display information. Through charts, graphs, and plots, they help users spot patterns, trends, and insights, making complex data easier to interpret, understand, and communicate effectively.

Moon topography

Global map of Moon topography. This digital elevation model (DEM) is based on data from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA).

Subduction seismic anisotropy

Illustration of constraints on subduction zone seismic anisotropy from a global compilation of shear-wave splitting measurements.

Slab tearing

Time-evolution of subduction slab break-off shown in a global spherical 3-D model.

Plume-induced subduction

Temporal evolution of subduction initiation in a global, 3-D spherical numerical experiment showing the cold plates and hot mantle plumes.

Mars topography

Global maps of Martian surface topography based on Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter data.

Polar surface topography

Polar maps of the Earth’s surface topography showing the bedrock elevation across oceans, land, and ice sheets.
