Abstract
The majority of Earth's surface topography is controlled by variations in crustal and lithospheric thicknesses and densities that are principally generated at plate boundaries. Nevertheless, it is recognised that some fraction of topography is maintained by convective circulation of the Earth's interior. Geodynamic simulations typically predict that this dynamic component of surface topography varies on wavelengths of
