The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Depth-dependent density change within the continental upper mantle
Contributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2012 The empirical model of the depth-dependent density change within the upper continental mantle is derived in this study. The density of the upper(most) mantle underlying the continental crust is obtained from the estimated values of the crust–mantle (Moho)

AGU Advances, 2022 Oceanic hotspots with extreme enriched mantle radiogenic isotopic signatures—including low 143Nd/144Nd indicative of subducted continental crust—are linked to plume conduits sampling the southern hemispheric mantle.

Mantle roots of the Emeishan plume: an evaluation based on teleseismic P-wave tomography [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2017 The voluminous magmatism associated with large igneous provinces (LIPs) is commonly correlated to upwelling plumes from the core–mantle boundary (CMB). Here we analyse seismic tomographic data from the Emeishan LIP in southwestern China.

Earthquake in central Italy and velocities structure of the mantle
Геофизический журнал, 2018 A three-dimensional P-velocity model of the European mantle built on the Taylor approximation made it possible to analyze the velocity structure of the mantle under the Mediterranean and, in particular, under Central Italy, to a depth of 2500 km. It is

Investigation of Petrological Characteristics of The Upper Mantle in Hadji-Abad Ophiolitic Complex (South of Iran): Based on Mineral Chemistry [PDF]
Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2021 The mantle peridotites of the Hadji-Abad ultramafic complex in Hormozgan province, show some petrological evolutions of the upper mantle of southern Iran. The complex includes harzburgite, lherzolite, dunite and chromitite.
