Abstract
A diapiric mechanism is presented to explain geochemical data on the thermal structure of the upper mantle. It is emphasised that any model to fit the data cannot be a steady state model, and it is concluded that the data are inconsistent with the popular interpretation of the seismic low velocity zone as a partially melted region.
