Title: Redoxreaction and Earth’s deep volatile cycle

Time: 10:00 - 11:00,Wednesday July 25, 2018

Place: Conferenceroom 410, HPSTAR (Shanghai)

Host: Ho-Kwang Mao

Abstract:

Redox reactions play unparalleled roles in Earth’s evolutioninto a habitable planet, yet many fundamental questions remain poorlyunderstood. What was the initial redox state of the Earth’s mantle and how didit change with time? Is metallic iron present in most of the mantle assuggested by several experiment studies? Can magnesium oxide and silicon oxideprovide chemical buoyancy force to drive the Earth’s dynamo for two billionyears? In this seminar, I will share the results of our recent experimental andmodeling investigations into the roles of redox reactions on Earth’s deepvolatile cycle.
