What is the chemical composition of the Earth’s interior? Because it is impossible to drill more than about ten kilometres deep into the Earth, volcanic rocks formed by melting Earth’s deep interior ...
Researchers proposed a “potential oxygen fugacity” parameter to directly compare the fO 2 characteristics of melts formed at different depths. The oxygen fugacity (fO 2) of the mantle controls the ...
