As big as the oceans are, they contain far less water than the models indicate was present on Earth during accretion and before core formation. Here geographers pursue the idea that the rest of it may be trapped deep in the mantle 410-660 kilometers down. After overviews of the deep water cycle, they cover water storage and stability in hydrous phases in the mantle, physical properties of a deep hydrous mantle, observational constraints on water in the deep mantle, and models of a deep water cycle. Kansas farmers should not get excited: the water may not be there at all, and if it is, it would take a mighty well to bring up. No index is provided.
