Unique composition and evolutionary histories of large low velocity provinces by James Panton, J. Huw Davies, Paula Koelemeijer, Robert Myhill, Jeroen Ritsema

“…Abstract The two “large low velocity provinces” (LLVPs) are broad, low seismic wave speed anomalies in Earth’s lower mantle beneath Africa and the Pacific Ocean. Recent research suggests they contain relatively dense subducted oceanic crust (SOC), but the relative concentration of this recycled material within them is an open question. …”
