3D viscosity model inferred from GLAD-M25

A model of mantle viscosity inferred from the seismic model GLAD-M25 using a method described within Lloyd et al. (2024). Model stored in NETCDF4 format with the following dimensions: depth(201), latitude(631), longitude(721). Latitude and longitude spacings are equal, while those for depth are variable, being adapted to the background earth model.
