Normal mode sensitivity to Earth's D″ layer and topography on the core-mantle boundary: What we can and cannot see
The core-mantle boundary (CMB) is Earth's most profound internal boundary separating the liquid iron outer core and the solid silicate mantle. The detailed structure near the CMB has a major influence on mantle convection and the evolution of the core. Seismic observations, such as topography o...
