Abstract: Abstract Quantifying water contents in the lithospheric mantle is key to our understanding of global geodynamics, mantle composition, and related physical properties. Most mantle lithologies (peridotite) contain little water (~50 ppm), but petrological heterogeneities such as… read more here.
