DescriptionWorking files relating to the paper: McKenzie, D and F Nimmo, J Jackson, P B Gans & E L Miller, "Characteristics and consequences of flow in the crust", 'Journal of Geophysical Research', vol 105 (2000), pp11029-11046. File 2 also includes material relating to: McKenzie, D, "Estimating Te [elastic thickness] in the presence of internal loads", 'Journal of Geophysical Research', vol 108, no.B9, 2438, doi 10.1029/2002JB001766.

File 1 entitled, 'Lower crustal flow notes, 11/99 to 1/01', comprising: manuscript notes, drafts and equations, 1991-2001; computer generated datasets and plots, 1990-2001; correspondence with the editor of the 'Journal of Geophysical Research Solid Earth', concerning the contents and editing process for the paper "Characteristics and consequences of flow in the crust", May-Dec 1999; offprints and copies of published academic papers by others on related subjects, 1984-1999; correspondence with fellow academics and scientists on the contents of McKenzie's long gestating paper, 1986-1999; manuscript draft of paper "Notes on isostatic flow calculations", 9 November 1986.

File 2 entitled, '(4) Continental gravity & Te [elastic thickness], lower crust flow, 20/11/01 to 26/5/04'. The first part of the file contains manuscript notes equations, computer generated plots and subroutines on lower crustal flow, 2002-2004, relating to the paper "Characteristics and consequences of flow in the crust". The rest is filed under 'admittance' and contains research, notes, bibliographic references and offprints, computer generated plots and data, 2001-2003, mainly relating to the paper "Estimating Te [elastic thickness] in the presence of internal loads" [ibid], including correspondence with Francis Albarede, editor of 'Journal of Geophysical Research', and fellow academics, on the contents, refereeing and editing process of the paper, with referee reports, 2002-2003. Also within the file are: one piece of correspondence on the publication of an unnamed paper [likely to be McKenzie, D & J Jackson, "Conditions for flow in the continental crust", 'Tectonics', vol 21(2002), 7 pp. doi 10.1029/2002TC001394]; printed email and press release on the GRACE Space Twins project launch, April 2002; small number of letters and notes from 1977-1979 seeking surface and satellite data to calculate the gravity field of the Indian Ocean for a joint research project with John Sclater and Barry Parsons.
ArrangementGiven temporary number as there it is likely to have to be rearranged when more material is received and section is expanded. The identification of the papers was by McKenzie.
