● Measurement of CO2/Incompatible species ratio in glasses, fluids, gases and independent estimate of mantle He or Nb etc.
CO2/3He (e.g., Trull et al., 1993; Marty and Tolstikhin, 1998; Shaw et al., 2003; Resing et al., 2004)
CO2/Ar (e.g., Tingle, 1998; Cartigny et al., 2001)
CO2/Nb (e.g., Saal et al., 2002; Cartigny et al., 2008)
CO2/Cl (e.g., Saal et al., 2002)
Deep Carbon – Estimating Flux and Concentration
• Direct measurement of CO2 in mantle derived melts/ glasses (MORBs, OIBs, Arc lavas and melt inclusions)
(e.g., Dixon et al., 1997; Bureau et al., 1998)
• Direct measurement of CO2 in mantle-derived fluids (trapped gas bubbles in basalts, hydrothermal vent fluids, plumes) and gases
(e.g., Aubaud et al., 2005)

Continental Lithospheric Mantleroot of continent stability, longevity, modification
How do we explain eruption of carbonatite, kimberlite, and other strongly alkalic magmas on continents? Why are these magmas rare in oceanic provinces?
Can carbon‐induced melting take place in continental lithospheric mantle?
What is the role of partial melting in explaining the geophysical properties of the mantle beneath continents?

The carbonated silicate partial melt with ~25 wt.% CO2 is estimated to have 6 wt.% H2O for a mantle with 200 ppm H2O
● DH2O (peridotite‐melt) is between DCeand DLa (peridotite‐melt)
● DCe and DLa (peridotite‐ carbonated melt) are known at high pressures
