Citing gFlex
------------

When you use gFlex, please cite the model description paper:

   isostasy: gFlex v1.0 <https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-9-997-2016>`_,
   *Geosci. Model Dev.*, *9*\(3), 997–1017.

To cite a specific version of the source code, use the Zenodo record for the
version you ran.  The concept DOI
`doi:10.5281/zenodo.10471939 <https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10471939>`_
always resolves to the latest deposited release; version-specific DOIs are
listed on that page.  For the current release (v1.4.0):
