Hydrous Regions of the Mantle Transition Zone Lie Beneath Areas of Continental Intraplate Volcanism
Abstract Great volumes of water are carried downward into the mantle transition zone (MTZ, 410–670 km depth) by subducting slabs. If this water is later drawn upward, the resulting mantle melting may generate continental intraplate volcanism (IPV). Despite water's importance, its amount and spa...
