Mercury's crustal thickness correlates with lateral variations in mantle melt production: Dataset for maps of surface density, degree of partial melting, and crustal thickness

1) DensityGrid.dat = map of density of pore-free surface rocks (Figure 1a) - Units = g/cm3 - 720 x 1440 pixels corresponding to 0.25-degree pixels in an equirectangular cylindrical projection with the equator as central parallel. - The first row represents 90 to 89.75 degrees of latitude north; the last row represents 89.75 to 90 degrees of latitude south. - The first column represents 0 to 0.25 degree of longitude; the last column represents 359.75 to 360 degrees of longitude. 2) MeltGrid.dat = map of degree of partial melting (Figure S1a) - Units: mass fraction - 720 x 1440 pixels as described above 3) CrustalThickness_ModelU0.dat = map of crustal thickness if laterally uniform density, Model U0 (Figure 2a) CrustalThickness_ModelVn.dat = map of crustal thickness if laterally variable density, Model Vn (Figure 2c, Figures S6 to S10) - Units = km - generated with MakeGridDH of SHTOOLS (https://shtools.github.io/SHTOOLS/) - 720 x 1440 coordinate points corresponding to 0.25-degree spacing in an equirectangular cylindrical projection with the equator as central parallel. - The first row corresponds to 90 degrees of latitude north; the last row corresponds to 89.75 degrees of latitude south. - The first column corresponds to 0 degree of longitude; the last column corresponds to 359.75 degrees of longitude.
