Oxygen Isotope Geochemistry of Oceanic-Arc Lavas
Variations of oxygen isotope ratios in arc-related lavas can constrain trace-element enrichment in a mantle source being fluxed by addition the contributions of subducted crustal igneous rocks, sediments, and of aqueous fluid. Comparison of this model with observed variations fluids to the sub-arc mantle. We have measured oxygen isotope in the geochemistry of lavas from the Vanuatu–Fiji–New Cal...
متن کاملOn the decompression melting structure at volcanic arcs and back-arc spreading centers
[1] Mantle dynamics can strongly affect melting processes beneath spreading centers and volcanic arcs. A 2-D numerical model of the Tonga subduction zone, with the slab viscously coupled to the mantle beneath the brittleductile transition but faulted above, shows that induced corner flow may cause asymmetric melting at the Lau backarc spreading center, 400 km away. The down-going slab also entr...
متن کاملthe kasian volcanic rocks, khorramabad, iran: evidence for a jurassic intra-oceanic island arc in neo-tethys ocean
the kasian volcanic body is located in the eastern margin of the zagros thrust belt, close to the sanandaj-sirjan metamorphic zone. these volcanic rocks are mainly composed of andesite and andesite-basalt rocks with porphyritic, hypocrystalline porphyritic, hyalo-porphyritic and hyalo-microlitic porphyritic textures. analyses of the distributions of major, rare earth and trace elements reveal a...
متن کاملCommunity Structure of Lithotrophically-Driven Hydrothermal Microbial Mats from the Mariana Arc and Back-Arc
The Mariana region exhibits a rich array of hydrothermal venting conditions in a complex geological setting, which provides a natural laboratory to study the influence of local environmental conditions on microbial community structure as well as large-scale patterns in microbial biogeography. We used high-throughput amplicon sequencing of the bacterial small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene from 22 micr...
متن کاملClustering of arc volcanoes caused by temperature perturbations in the back-arc mantle
Clustering of arc volcanoes in subduction zones indicates along-arc variation in the physical condition of the underlying mantle where majority of arc magmas are generated. The sub-arc mantle is brought in from the back-arc largely by slab-driven mantle wedge flow. Dynamic processes in the back-arc, such as small-scale mantle convection, are likely to cause lateral variations in the back-arc ma...
