Formation of Structurally Bound Carbonate in Silicate Melts on the Top of the Mantle Transition Zone

Abstract Carbon‐bearing dense silicate melts may account for the seismically weak layers on top of the mantle transition zone (MTZ) at 13–14 GPa. How carbon is incorporated into silicate melts at such high pressures has not been experimentally probed, making the nature of carbon in dense melts elusi...
