Trace-element compositions of clinopyroxene. a A compilation of this study’s data. The depleted peridotite (MPSX-PR1) is shown as green lines. Red lines display the enriched peridotite (MPSX-PR2). Pyroxenite data (blue lines) include all pyroxenite xenoliths, xenocrysts (MPSX-PX1 to PX6), and isolated clinopyroxene xenocrysts. Gray solid lines show metasomatized peridotite xenoliths from the NW Pacific petit-spot reported by Pilet et al. (2016). Gray dotted lines represent the abyssal peridotite from East Pacific Rise (Dick and Natland 1996; Regelous et al. 2016). b Compilation of the other peridotite xenoliths from Pacific. The trace-element compositions of the Hawaiian peridotite xenoliths (Pali vent; black lines, and Salt Lake Crater; azure lines) are from Bizimis et al. (2007). REE concentrations of Hawaiian peridotite xenoliths (Ka'au vent; green diamonds, Pali vent; white diamonds) are also compiled here (Sen et al. 1993). Tahitian metasomatized harzburgite xenolith is from Akizawa et al. (2017). The data for the primitive mantle are from Sun and McDonough (1989). The detailed values are shown in Additional file 4: Table S5
