Convective flow in the deep mantle controls Earth's dynamic evolution, influences plate
tectonics, and has shaped Earth's current surface features. Present and past convection …

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 …

Ultralow velocity zones (ULVZs) and seismic anisotropy are both commonly detected in the
lowermost mantle at the edges of the two antipodal large low velocity provinces (LLVPs) …

We study the thermal evolution of super-Earths with a one-dimensional (1D) parameterized
convection model that has been adopted to account for a strong pressure dependence of the …

One of the most powerful approaches for understanding the 3‐D thermo‐chemical structure
of the lower mantle is to link tomographic models with mineral physics data. This is not …

In the present study, the temperature-and pressure-dependent transport and thermal
properties, ie, viscosity, phonon thermal conductivity, thermal expansivity and heat …

The Earth was formed by the accretion of both differentiated and undifferentiated parent
bodies, and the large density difference between metallic and ionic components gave rise to …

This article commences by surveying the basic dynamics of Earth's core and their impact on
various mechanisms of core-mantle coupling. The physics governing core convection and …

The lattice thermal conductivity (κ lat) of MgSiO 3 perovskite (Mg-Pv) under high-pressure
and high-temperature conditions was computed based on the ab initio anharmonic lattice …

In a previous study (Okamoto & Hiraga, 2022, https://doi. org/10.1029/2022jb024638), we
concluded that diffusion creep and grain growth in polymineralic rocks proceed by a …
