Dynamics and evolution of the deep mantle resulting from thermal, chemical, phase and melting effects (2012, background): “If that is the case, then the volume of oceanic crust produced corresponds to 53% of a mantle volume (Xie and Tackley, 2004b).”
Evolution of U-Pb and Sm-Nd systems in numerical models of mantle convection and plate tectonics (2004, background): “[44] The two-component phase transitions around 660– 720 km depth interact with compositional variations to cause partial stratification [Ogawa, 2000; Fleitout et al., 2000; Tackley, 2002a; Xie and Tackley, 2004 ].”
Reconciling dynamic and seismic models of Earth's lower mantle: The dominant role of thermal heterogeneity (2012, methodology): “…testing in a fully dynamic model, which includes the recycling of oceanic plates and the evolution of geochemical tracers, as has previously been done for thermo-chemical ‘pile’ models (e.g. Tackley and Xie, 2002; Xie and Tackley, 2004a,b; Brandenburg and van Keken, 2007; Brandenburg et al., 2008).”
