Compressional Behavior of Hydrous Orthoenstatite: Insight into the Nature of LVZ under Continental Plate

A suite of hydrous orthoenstatite crystals were synthesized at 5−7 GPa and 1100−1300 °C, corresponding to the mid upper mantle conditions in continental regions. The synthetic crystals presented a clear, inclusion-free, and euhedral form with a size range from 100 to a f...
