下地幔 (地球)

下地幔 (地球)（英语：Lower Mantle (earth)）以前也被称为地球中层，约占地球总体积的 56%，位于地球表以下 660 至 2900 公里的区域；在过渡区和外核之间^[1]。根据初步地球参考模型（PREM)，下地幔分为三个部分，最上层（660-770公里）、中下地幔（770-2700公里）和D层（2700-2900公里）^[2]。下地幔的压力和温度范围为 24-127 GPa^[2] 和 1900-2600 K. ^[3]。地幔岩被认为是下地幔的主要成分^[4]。它包含三相镁橄榄石(bridgmanite)、铁方镁石和硅酸钙钙钛矿(calcium-silicate perovskite)。高压在下地幔已被证明会引起含铁锰矿和方镁石的离子旋转变化^[5]。这可能会影响地幔柱的动力学^[6]^[7],和下地幔的化学变化^[5]。

地震波速度和密度在下地幔的顶界，约660 公里（410 英里）深，有急剧增加现象)^[8]。在此深度，尖晶橄榄石 (ringwoodite )(γ-(Mg,Fe)₂SiO₄) 分解成布里奇曼石(Mg-Si perovskite) 和铁质方镁石(magnesiowüstite)^[8]。根据地震数据和高压实验室实验资料，推论这个分解就造成上地幔和下地幔之间的界面。下地幔的底部，包括“D” 区，与地核相邻，深约2700公里^[8]。
