Redox-influenced seismic properties of uppermantle olivine

Lateral variations of seismic wave speeds and attenuation (dissipation of strain energy) in the Earth's upper mantle have the potential to map key characteristics such as temperature, major-element composition, melt fraction and water content1-3. The inversion of these data into meaningful repr...
