Thus, deuterium accounts for about 0.0156% by number (0.0312% by mass) of all hydrogen in the ocean: 4.85 × 10 13 tonnes of deuterium – mainly as HOD (or 1 HO 2 H or 1 H 2 HO) and only rarely as D 2 O (or 2 H 2 O) (deuterium oxide, also known as heavy water) – in 1.4 × 10 18 tonnes of water. The abundance of 2 H changes slightly from one ...

Unlike molecular H 2 O that is found on the surface, water in the interior exists primarily in hydrated minerals or as trace amounts of hydrogen bonded to oxygen atoms in anhydrous minerals. [21] Hydrated silicates on the surface transport water into the mantle at convergent plate boundaries, where oceanic crust is subducted underneath ...
