Arc-parallel flow within the mantle wedge: Evidence from the accreted Talkeetna arc, south central Alaska
[1] Residual mantle exposures in the accreted Talkeetna arc, Alaska, provide the first rock analog for the arc-parallel flow that is inferred from seismic anisotropy at several modern arcs. The peridotites exposed at the base of the Jurassic Talkeetna arc have a Moho-parallel foliation and indicate dislocation creep of olivine at temperatures of 1000 to >1100 C. Slip occurred chiefly on the (00...
متن کاملSeismic evidence for flow in the hydrated mantle wedge of the Ryukyu subduction zone
It is widely accepted that water-rich serpentinite domains are commonly present in the mantle above shallow subducting slabs and play key roles in controlling the geochemical cycling and physical properties of subduction zones. Thermal and petrological models show the dominant serpentine mineral is antigorite. However, there is no good consensus on the amount, distribution and alignment of this...
متن کاملDeep Mantle Seismic Modeling and Imaging
Detailed seismic modeling and imaging of Earth’s deep interior is providing key information about lower-mantle structures and processes, including heat flow across the core-mantle boundary, the configuration of mantle upwellings and downwellings, phase equilibria and transport properties of deep mantle materials, and mechanisms of core-mantle coupling. Multichannel seismicwave analysismethods t...
متن کاملMantle mixing and continental breakup magmatism
The frequent formation of large igneous provinces during the opening of the Atlantic Ocean is a surface manifestation of the thermal and chemical state of convecting mantle beneath the supercontinent Pangea. Recent geochemical and geophysical findings from the North Atlantic igneous province all point to the significant role of incomplete mantle mixing in igneous petrogenesis. On the basis of a...
متن کاملSlab devolatilization and Os and Pb mobility in the mantle wedge of the Kamchatka arc
Os-, Nd-, and Pb-isotope measurements were performed on a suite of eleven Kamchatka peridotite mantle xenoliths in volcanics from the southern (Avachinsky) and central (Sheveluch and Kharchinsky) segments of the Kamchatka peninsula. Peridotites with higher Os content (1.3–5.2 ppb) show a narrow Os / Os range between 0.1182 and 0.1272 while the xenoliths with lower Os content (b1 ppb) show a wid...
