Contents

Numerical model calculations are used to determine if convection in the Earth’s mantle could be organized in two or more layers with only limited mass exchange in between. The seismic discontinuity at 670 km depth and the top of the D"-layer at the bottom of the mantle are considered as candidates for internal boundaries. If the 670 km discontinuit...
