Statement

The numerical models solve the governing equations for Boussinesq rotating convection driven by homogeneous internal heating in a full sphere geometry. For the 3D simulations, we use the code XSHELLS (Schaeffer, Geochem. Geophys. Geosyst. 14, 751–758 (2013); Kaplan, Schaeffer, Vidal & Cardin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 094501 (2017)). For the 2D simulations, we use a QG approximation for rapidly rotating spherical convection developed from the Busse annulus model. The full details of the methodology are available in Guervilly, Cardin & Schaeffer (2019, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1301-5).
