Expressions of the form, lnD(M) = a lnfO2 + b/T + cP/T + d(ln(1-XS)) + e(nbo/t) + f, have been derived to predict D(M) (where D is a metal/silicate partition coefficient and M = Ni, Co, Mo, W and P) as a function of P, T, fO2, and silicate and metallic melt composition (nbo/t and XS, respectively). Earth's upper mantle abundances of Ni, Co, Mo, W and P can be reconciled with simple metal-silicate equilibrium at P-T conditions near the upper/lower mantle interface (27 GPa, 2200 K, delta IW = -0.15, X(sub)S = 0.15 and nbo/t = 2.7), in a magma ocean.
