What the Solar System Can Teach Us About Rocky Exoplanets
Paul K. Byrne, Claire Marie Guimond, Peter A. Cawood +9
The number of rocky extrasolar planets being discovered continues to increase, but so too does the apparent diversity of such worlds. As we work to understand the likely bulk prope…
Mantle Differentiation, Mixing and Interior-Exterior Exchange
Takashi Nakagawa, Charitra Jain, Diogo L. Lourenco +2
We review the formation of large-scale heterogeneity in the solid Earth from the magma ocean phase to the present day, focusing on lower-mantle structure and evolution, as well as…
Interior Controls on the Habitability of Rocky Planets
Cedric Gillmann, Kaustubh Hakim, Diogo Lourenco +2
No matter how fascinating and exotic other terrestrial planets are revealed to be, nothing generates more excitement than announcements regarding their habitability. From the obser…
The Tectonics and Volcanism of Venus: New Modes Facilitated by Realistic Crustal Rheology and Intrusive Magmatism
Jiacheng Tian, Paul J. Tackley, Diogo L. Lourenço
To explain Venus' young surface age and lack of plate tectonics, Venus' tectonic regime has often been proposed to be either an episodic-lid regime with global lithospheric overtur…
Reconciling Magma-Ocean Crystallization Models with the present-day Structure of the Earth's mantle
Maxim D. Ballmer, Diogo L. Lourenço, Kei Hirose +2
Terrestrial planets are thought to experience episode(s) of large-scale melting early in their history. Fractionation during magma-ocean freezing leads to unstable stratification w…
