How lowermost mantle viscosity controls the chemical structure of Earth’s deep interior
Abstract Determining the fate of subducted oceanic crust is critical for understanding material cycling through Earth’s deep interior and sources of mantle heterogeneity. A key control on the distribution of subducted slabs over long timescales is the bridgmanite to post-perovskite phase transition...
