The Upper Mantle
12/10/24
“What is special about the upper part of the mantle?”
The Earth is a humungous structure. Not only is it divided into multiple layers, but each layers are divided into layers itself. The mantle has an upper part called The Upper Mantle which acts as a transition zone from the crust to the lower mantle. The temperature can range from 227 °C at the upper boundary to 3,930 °C at the lower.
