Determination of the chemical composition of the Earth’s mantle is of prime importance to understand the evolution, dynamics, and origin of the Earth. However, there is a lack of experimental data on sound velocity of iron-bearing Bridgmanite (Brd) under relevant high-pressure conditions of the whole mantle, which prevents constraints on the mineralogical model of the lower mantle. To uncover these issues, we have conducted sound-velocity measurement of iron-bearing Brd in a diamond-anvil cell (DAC) up to 124 GPa using Brillouin scattering spectroscopy. Here we show that the sound velocities of iron-bearing Brd throughout the whole pressure range of lower mantle exhibit an apparent linear reduction with the iron content. Our data fit remarkably with the seismic structure throughout the lower mantle with Fe2+-enriched Brd, indicating that the greater part of the lower mantle could be occupied by Fe2+-enriched Brd. Our lower-mantle model shows a distinctive Si-enriched composition with Mg/Si of 1.14 relative to the upper mantle (Mg/Si = 1.25), which implies that the mantle convection has been inefficient enough to chemically homogenize the Earth’s whole mantle.

In the prospects of maritime development, the accuracy requirements of the marine sonar equipment also getting higher and higher, it is particularly important to measure the sound velocity in seawaters(ultrasound propagation velocity in seawater) in high-precision, in this experiment, basing on the seawater sound velocity variation influencing factors, proposing a method of average measuring the sound velocity of seawater based on STM32 and TDC-GP21 transit-time, The results of the experiment show that this method can be high-precision measurement of the size of the seawater sonic,meet the seawater sound velocity measurement requirements.
