Morgan's simplified mantle-convection scheme needs revision before it agrees with geophysical data and with how convecting fluids behave.
“It is clear that the simplifications to the problem of manlle convection proposed by Morgan (1971) must be modified in order to be consistent with geophysical observations and the observed behaviour of convecting fluids.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
