Between 15 million and 6 million years ago, a drop in ocean crust production may have lowered sea level by 26 to 32 meters.

Scientists have revealed that two continent-size regions in Earth's deep mantle have distinctive histories and resulting chemical composition, in contrast to the common assumption they are the same.

Subduction zones serve as a critical link between Earth’s surface and deep layers, playing a vital ... contributions from sediment or altered oceanic crust (Figure 2). Geochemical simulations ...
