"How to proceed:
"
"Gather information about the convective regime i.e. material properties, boundary conditions, e.t.c.
"
"=> have a model of convection in the Earth mantle and understand the mixing properties
"
"=> feed information derived from the geochemical investigations back into the model and try to refine it until it fullfills geochemical constrains
"
"  => the SUPER-MODEL
