Substantial Global Radial Variations of Basalt Content Near the 660‐km Discontinuity
Abstract Mid‐ocean ridges generate basalt and harzburgite, which are introduced into the mantle through subduction as a mechanical mixture, contributing to both lateral and radial compositional heterogeneity. The possible accumulation of basalt in the mantle transition zone has been examined, but de...
