Extended Data Fig. 6: Parent melt water abundances of CE6 mare basalt compared with estimates from nearside samples.

From: Water abundance in the lunar farside mantle

Extended Data Fig. 6

Very low-Ti pyroclastic glass 15427 from ref. 14; low-Ti mare basalt 12002, 12004, 12008, 12020, 12040, 15016, 12039, 12064, 15555, and 15058 from ref. 23; high-Ti mare basalt Apollo 10020, 10044, 74235, and 75055 from refs. 23,30,32; high-Ti pyroclastic melt inclusions in 74220 from refs. 17,30,32,42,65,66; high-Al basalt 14072 and 14053 from refs. 15,23. The error bars represent the ranges of the parent melt water abundances estimated from lunar samples in the literature. The red dashed line is a reference at 18.5 µg.g−1 for comparison.
