Global seismographic networks (GSNs) emerged during the late nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries, facilitated by seminal international developments in theory, technology …

The extended Burgers material (EBM) model provides a linear viscoelastic theory for
interpreting a variety of rock deformation phenomena in geophysics, playing an increasingly …

Due to tidal interactions in the Earth-Moon system, the spin of the Earth slows down and the
Moon drifts away. This recession of the Moon can now be measured with great precision, but …

Abstract Tides and Earth‐Moon system evolution are coupled over geological time. Tidal
energy dissipation on Earth slows rotation rate, increases obliquity, lunar orbit semi‐major …

We employ laboratory‐based grain size‐and temperature‐sensitive rheological models to
describe the viscoelastic behavior and tidal response of terrestrial bodies with focus on …

Every study modeling tidal heating must adopt some rheology model. Rheology models
describe the relationship between the imposed stress, and the resulting deformation (strain) …

Bodily tides provide key information on the interior structure, evolution, and origin of the
planetary bodies. Our Solar system harbors a very diverse population of planetary bodies …

Studies of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) often use paleoshorelines and present‐day
deformation to constrain the viscosity of the mantle and the thickness of the elastic …

We develop a conceptual/quantitative framework whereby measurements of Earth's
viscoelasticity may be assessed across the broad range of geophysical processes, spanning …

A general assumption in geodesy is that solid Earth deformation in the presence of recent
hydrological and ice loading is well approximated by a purely elastic response. In cases …
