PlateFlex is a software for estimating the effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere from the inversion of flexural isostatic response functions calculated from a wavelet analysis of gravity and topography data.

Installation

Dependencies

The current version was developed using Python3.7 Also, the following package is required:

See below for full installation details.

Conda environment

We recommend creating a custom conda environment where platecurie can be installed along with its dependencies.

conda create -n curie python=3.7 fortran-compiler numpy pymc3 matplotlib seaborn -c conda-forge

Activate the newly created environment:

conda activate curie

Install the required plateflex software (see here)

Installing from source

  • Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/paudetseis/PlateCurie.git
cd PlateCurie
  • Install using pip

pip install .
platecurie.get_conf_cpwt()

Print global variable that controls the spatio-spectral resolution of the wavelet transform

Example

>>> import platecurie
>>> platecurie.get_conf_cpwt()
Wavelet parameter used in platecurie.cpwt:
