| • The total deviatoric stress field determined from the sum of stresses due to GPE variations estimated with the filtered GEOID96 (28) and the corresponding best fit stress field boundary conditions associated with PA-NA Plate interaction. | ||||||||
| • The vertically averaged effective viscosity (over L) by the magnitude of the strain rate (2) for each grid area determined from the self-consistent kinematic model. | ||||||||
