Short summary
This work shows that even under the low oxygen fugacities prevailing in the deep upper mantle and transition zone, around 410 km depth, the storage capacity in the nominally anhydrous mineral olivine and its high-pressure polymorph, wadsleyite, is still substantial, with up to 0.8–1 wt % at the iron-wüstite buffer and 1300–1400 °C for wadsleyite, even in the presence of carbon.
