Dataset and Software for High-resolution mantle flow models reveal importance of plate boundary geometry and slab pull forces on generating tectonic plate motions

This repository contains the plugin and dataset used to setup models in the manuscript: "High-resolution mantle flow models reveal importance of plate boundary geometry and slab pull forces on generating tectonic plate motions". It also includes the corresponding versions of the geodynamics software ASPECT and Worldbuilder which were used to develop the models in the paper.

The material model plugin used in our models is in the "plugins" folder. The "models" folder contains the reference input parameter file described in the paper. All other model configurations shown in the paper can be obtained by modifying this parameter file.  The input files used to set up the models are in the respective folder. Additionally, the Jupyter notebook used to compute residuals of our models is provided in the "scripts" folder.
