| Session Description | The Earth's mantle and core are enigmatic places. They are difficult to sample and probe. Studying the deep interior of the Earth thus requires inter-disciplinary collaboration. Recent progress on the dense and wide deployment of seismic array, high pressure apparatus, computer model, and numerical algorithm have helped us to improve the understanding of these regions. In this session, we solicit contributions of new advance on structure, dynamics and/or evolution of Earth's mantle and core, and their implications to geomagnetic field, plate tectonics and surface processes. We welcome contributions from seismology, mantle convection, geodynamo, mineral physics, and other related approaches. |
