1-D Reference Earth Models

  • alt text

What does the Earth look like on average?
What are the reasons for historical discrepancies between Reference Earth Models?
.... and several other interesting questions.

Please stay tuned for forthcoming papers where I document the work on accurate 1-D Reference Earth Models. These studies formed the foundation for my ongoing post-doctoral work, where I am leading the REM-3D project. The aim of this community project is to develop a 3-D Reference Earth Model, a natural extension of this thesis.
