Narrow, Fast, and “Cool” Mantle Plumes Caused by Strain‐Weakening Rheology in Earth's Lower Mantle
Abstract The rheological properties of Earth's lower mantle are key for mantle dynamics and planetary evolution. The main rock‐forming minerals in the lower mantle are bridgmanite (Br) and smaller amounts of ferropericlase (Fp). Previous work has suggested that the large differences in viscosity bet...
