Ancient Stratified Thermochemical Piles Due To High Intrinsic Viscosity

Abstract The two Large Low Velocity Provinces (LLVPs) in the lowermost Earth mantle are thought to affect large‐scale heat and material transport, governing mantle evolution. LLVPs have been interpreted as thermochemical piles of recycled oceanic crust (ROC) and/or other dense rock types. However, t...
