Abstract
In this project, we focus on analyzing how the effect of the mantle heterogeneous velocity structure affects the travel time of P waves converted to S waves at the discontinuities of 410 km and 600 km, which mark the so-called mantle transition zone (MTZ). The MTZ is characterized by pressure-induced phase changes in the olivine, the most abundant mineral in the mantle, at its top and bot…
