Meeting Time: Tuesday, 15:10 until 16:00 PM
Meeting Location: Room 342 Macelwane Building
We discussed papers dealing with the physical state, composition, and evolution of the upper mantle. Each student will prepare and deliver a presentation on a recent article discussing the nature of the upper few hundred km of the mantle.
