▪ Abstract The subducted lithosphere is composed of a complex pattern of chemical systems
that undergo continuous and discontinuous phase transformation, through pressure and …

The Western Pacific Triangular Zone (WPTZ) is the frontier of a future supercontinent to be
formed at 250 Ma after present. The WPTZ is characterized by double-sided subduction …

A new model of whole mantle P-wave tomography is determined with a novel approach. A
grid parameterization instead of blocks and spherical harmonics is adopted to express the …

Mantle Plumes and Their Record in Earth History provides a timely and comprehensive
review of the origin and history of mantle plumes throughout geologic time. The book …

Recent seismological work has revealed new structures in the boundary layer between the
Earth's core and mantle that are altering and expanding perspectives of the role this region …

In this article we first introduce the methodology of multiscale seismic tomography and the
way to interpret the obtained tomographic images, and then review the significant recent …

We used three-dimensional inverse scattering of core-reflected shear waves for large-scale,
high-resolution exploration of Earth's deep interior (D ″) and detected multiple, piecewise …

Strong heterogeneity at a variety of scale lengths has been imaged in the lowermost mantle
using different forward and inverse methods. Coherent patterns in differential travel times of …

The core–mantle boundary (CMB)–the interface between the silicate mantle and liquid iron
alloy outer core–is the most important boundary inside our planet, with processes occurring …

Phase relations of a natural mantle composition were determined up to 126 GPa and 2450 K
by in‐situ x‐ray diffraction measurements in a laser‐heated diamond‐anvil cell (LHDAC) …
