Earth's mantle composition revealed by mantle plumes
Mantle plumes originate at depths near the core− mantle boundary (~ 2,800 km). As such,
they provide invaluable information about the composition of the deep mantle and insight …

Archean cratonic mantle recycled at a mid-ocean ridge
Basalts and mantle peridotites of mid-ocean ridges are thought to sample Earth's upper
mantle. Osmium isotopes of abyssal peridotites uniquely preserve melt extraction events …

Recycled arc mantle recovered from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge
Plate tectonics and mantle dynamics necessitate mantle recycling throughout Earth's history,
yet direct geochemical evidence for mantle reprocessing remains elusive. Here we present …

Chemical geodynamics insights from a machine learning approach
The radiogenic isotope heterogeneity of oceanic basalts is often assessed using 2D isotope
ratio diagrams. But because the underlying data are at least six dimensional (87Sr/86Sr …

A process-oriented approach to mantle geochemistry
A Stracke - Chemical Geology, 2021 - Elsevier
The numerous chemical and isotopic studies of oceanic basalts have shaped our perception
of mantle geochemistry over the last six decades. As partial melts of Earth's mantle, basalts …

The Origin and Differentiation of CO2-Rich Primary Melts in Ocean Island Volcanoes: Integrating 3D X-Ray Tomography with Chemical Microanalysis of Olivine …
Constraining the initial differentiation of primary mantle melts is vital for understanding
magmatic systems as a whole. Chemical compositions of olivine-hosted melt inclusions …

Mantle sources of ocean islands basalts revealed from noble gas isotope systematics
Noble gas isotope systematics, particular those of He, have been fundamental in showing
that some ocean island basalts (OIB) were sourced from deep mantle plumes. Relationships …

Elemental constraints on the amount of recycled crust in the generation of mid-oceanic ridge basalts (MORBs)
Mid-oceanic ridge basalts (MORBs) are depleted in incompatible elements, but ridge
segments far from mantle plumes frequently erupt chemically enriched MORBs (E-MORBs) …

Earth mantle's isotopic record of progressive chemical depletion
Mid ocean ridge basalts are partial melts of mantle rocks that have become incompatible
element depleted prior to recent sub‐ridge melting. This prior extent of melt extraction and …
