Earth’s mantle heterogeneity theories
Conceptual model sketches for proposed compositional structures of Earth's mantle, including "Marble cake", "Thermo-chemical piles", and "Mid-mantle blobs" theories.
“Freehand” drawings to portray certain concepts qualitatively. Instead of directly representing data, they are visualising the current knowledge.
Crops and cover crops collection
A schematic collection of common crops and cover crops by Schroeder (2022).
Subduction zone initiation reconstructions
Subduction zone initiation (SZI) reconstructions for selected events since around 100 Ma. The reconstructed events are based on the whole Earth Sciences community point-of-view of the SZI database.
Glendonite formation (Fur)
Model for the formation of glendonite (and concretionary calcite growth around them) in the Eocene-aged sediments of northern Denmark.
Arches National Park normal fault (Utah)
Normal fault within Permian-Triassic Sediment located at Paradox Basin (Moab Utah).
Entrada Formation (Utah)
Interpreted Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) model of a cliff showing igneous intrusions. Profile is from the Entrada Formation (160 Ma, Utah).
Glendonite formation (Svalbard)
Model for the formation of zoned glendonites in the Lower Cretaceous sediments of Svalbard.
Seismic stratal termination
An example of outlining main stratal terminations and related interpretation of seismic reflectors.
