“…For Crust1.0 models, both crustal and mantle densities are from Crust1.0. For each of the three compensation styles, we test two cases: (1) “slab,” in which mantle lithosphere portions of columns that include intermediate‐depth earthquakes (Sippl, Schurr, Yuan, et al, ) are assigned an effective slab density of 3,270 kg/m 3 (Sippl, Schurr, Tympel, et al, ; Tiwari et al, ), and (2) “no slab,” in which mantle lithosphere is unmodified. In the compensated, slab model, the crust is compensated everywhere except in grid areas that contain the slab.…”
