英文摘要 | We present a novel approach to investigate variations in upper mantle and transition zone (MTZ) water content based on the joint analysis of electromagnetic (EM) signals originating in the ionosphere and magnetosphere. We invert EM signals (period range 6 hr to 85 days) to probe the electrical conductivity structure underneath 20 geomagnetic observatories, accounting for the complex spatial structure of the ionospheric and magnetospheric sources. The joint inversion of EM data for the daily and long-period bands leads to significantly improved resolution in the upper mantle and MTZ. The conductivity profiles reveal significant lateral variability, which we interpret in terms of mantle water content by coupling electrical conductivity with constrains on mantle thermochemical structure derived from the analysis of seismic data. Our results suggest the existence of a relatively dry MTZ beneath Europe and a water-enriched MTZ underneath North America and northern Asia. ©2020. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved. |
