This thesis intends to extend and improve the database on seismic properties available on mantle rocks.Further, the relevance of different olivine CPO types is discussed and the influence of hydrous phaseson the seismic properties is investigated. Ten samples ...

Mantle peridotites were early exposed at the sea-floor of the Jurassic Tethys derived from the subcontinental mantle of the Europe-Adria system. During continental rifting and oceanic spreading, these lithospheric peridotites were percolated via diffuse reactive ...
