(a) Schematic architecture of the Réunion plume and the observed depths to the mantle transition zone (MTZ) discontinuities along profile AA* (SW-NE) (Reg-2 in Fig. 3). The dotted box indicates the Réunion Island region. The brown dotted lines indicate the observed depths to the mantle transition zone on the eastern side of Réunion, sampling the oceanic region (Reg-3 in Fig. 3). The flow of hot material towards the eastern side is indicated by red arrows. (b) The topography/bathymetry along profile AA*. The long dashed line indicates an elevation of 0 km.
