IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-16 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106333

The Pamir Plateau, NW prolongation of the Tibetan Plateau, experienced late Cenozoic thrusting and extensional shearing/faulting and mainly receives moisture from the mid-latitude Westerlies. Thus, this region provides a natural laboratory to study how tectonic activity and climate impact topography. In this study, we extracted geomorphic indices from digital elevation model data, including local relief, normalized channel steepness index (ksn), river longitudinal and χ profiles, as well as cross-valley profiles, to reveal the topographic variations across the Pamir Plateau, and to analyze the effects of tectonic activity and climate on its topography. Because the upper reaches of the Panj, Ghez, and Tashkurgan river catchments, and the Karakul Lake endorheic catchment are located in extremely low precipitation regions and dominantly result from late Cenozoic crustal extension, they generally have low local relief and ksn values, gentle gradients on the χ-elevation plots, and wide valleys, especially along the intermontane basins. By contrast, the lower reaches of the Panj, Ghez, and Tashkurgan catchments generally have high local relief and ksn values, steep gradients on the χ-elevation plots, and narrow V-shaped, deeply-incised valleys. For the lower reaches of the Panj catchment in the western Pamir, this difference is due to relatively high precipitation from the Westerlies, but for those of the Ghez and Tashkurgan catchments in the eastern Pamir, although they receive low precipitation, they cross the footwall of the Kongur Shan normal fault, along which tectonic uplift rates are particularly high. During the past ∼ 25 Ma, the drainage divide between the Panj catchment and the Ghez and Tashkurgan catchments migrated eastwards from the Pamir Plateau interior to its present location along the eastern Pamir Range, driven by high precipitation and erosion to the west.

帕米尔高原是青藏高原向西北的延伸,经历了新生代晚期的推移和延伸剪切/断层,主要接受来自中纬度西风的湿气。因此,该地区为研究构造活动和气候如何影响地形提供了一个天然实验室。在这项研究中,我们从数字高程模型数据中提取了地貌指数,包括局部地形、归一化河道陡度指数(ksn)、河流纵剖面和χ剖面以及跨谷剖面,以揭示帕米尔高原的地形变化,并分析构造活动和气候对其地形的影响。由于上游的潘杰河、格孜河、塔什库尔干河集水区和卡拉库勒湖内流集水区位于降水量极低的地区,且主要是新生代晚期地壳延伸的结果,因此它们的局部地形和 ksn 值普遍较低,χ-高程图上的梯度平缓,河谷宽阔,尤其是沿山间盆地的河谷。相比之下,Panj、Ghez 和 Tashkurgan 集水区的下游通常具有较高的局部地形起伏和 ksn 值、χ 高程图上的陡峭梯度以及狭窄的 V 形深谷。帕米尔西部 Panj 集水区的下游之所以存在这种差异,是因为西风降水量相对较高,而帕米尔东部 Ghez 和 Tashkurgan 集水区的降水量虽然较低,但它们横跨孔古尔山正断层的底壁,沿此断层的构造隆起率特别高。在过去的 ∼ 25 Ma 期间,潘杰集水区与格孜集水区和塔什库尔干集水区之间的排水分界线从帕米尔高原内部向东迁移,在高降水量和西侧侵蚀作用的推动下,沿着帕米尔山脉东部迁移到了现在的位置。

Weathering and pedogenesis of the Holocene aeolian loess-paleosol sections in the Guanzhong Basin on the Chinese Loess Plateau 中国黄土高原关中盆地全新世风化黄土-页岩断面的风化与成土作用
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-16 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106334
The aeolian loess-paleosol sections on the Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) represent invaluable archives for elucidating the dynamics of the East Asian Monsoon (EAM) across Quaternary glacial-interglacial cycles. In this study, a Holocene aeolian loess-paleosol section in the Guanzhong Basin on the CLP was meticulously investigated to assess the intensity of weathering and pedogenesis, and to discern its paleoclimatic implications. Through comprehensive analysis of chemical element composition and micromorphology, it was revealed that the majority of stratigraphic units within the Holocene aeolian loess-paleosol section exhibit indications of weak weathering and pedogenesis, while the mid-Holocene paleosol approaches to moderate weathering and pedogenesis. Hierarchically, the intensity of weathering and pedogenesis among the stratigraphic units can be ranked as follows: paleosol > topsoil > recent loess > transitional loess. Furthermore, the chemical index of alteration (CIA) values of the mid-Holocene paleosol exhibit a gradient decline from southeast to northwest, aligning with present-day temperature and precipitation distributions under the predominant influence of the East Asian summer Monsoon (EASM). Thus, it can be inferred that the robust impact of the EASM on weathering and pedogenesis of paleosol was pronounced during the mid-Holocene Climatic Optimum. These results are of significance in exploring the Holocene weathering and pedogenesis and paleoenvironmental evolution on the CLP.
中国黄土高原(CLP)的风化黄土-页岩剖面是阐明第四纪冰川-间冰期东亚季风(EAM)动态的宝贵档案。本研究对中国华北平原关中盆地全新世风化黄土-页岩剖面进行了细致的研究,以评估风化和成土的强度,并揭示其对古气候的影响。通过对化学元素组成和微观形态的综合分析,发现全新世风化黄土-古沉积剖面的大部分地层单元表现出弱风化和成土迹象,而全新世中期古沉积则接近中度风化和成土。从层次上看,地层单元之间的风化和成土强度可划分为:古沉积> 表土> 新近黄土> 过渡黄土。此外,全新世中期古沉积的化学蚀变指数(CIA)值呈现出由东南向西北梯度下降的趋势,与东亚夏季季风(EASM)主要影响下的现今温度和降水分布相一致。因此可以推断,在全新世中期气候最适宜时期,东亚夏季季候风对古沉积物的风化和成土作用非常明显。这些结果对探索全新世风化和成土过程以及中山公园的古环境演变具有重要意义。

Hydrogen loss from pyroxene within granulite xenoliths at Damaping, North China craton 华北克拉通大马坪花岗岩异岩石中辉石的氢损失
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-16 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106331
The preservation of original water contents within nominally anhydrous minerals is essential for understanding the deep Earth’s water budget. Here we present a comprehensive analysis of mineral chemistry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy on 15 lower-crustal granulite xenoliths collected from Damaping in the North China craton. Our analyses reveal that the orthopyroxene grains from two samples exhibit hydrogen-deficient rims, suggestive of hydrogen loss. Drawing upon experimentally determined hydrogen diffusivity in pyroxene, we propose that clinopyroxene, despite the absence of evident hydrogen zoning, may have likewise undergone partial hydrogen depletion. Our findings call into question the conventional belief that hydrogen concentrations in pyroxene are faithful proxies for the original water content in the continental lower crust. We attribute the loss of hydrogen in pyroxene to magmatic outgassing, most likely occurring during the surface flow stage. Such a process could partially explain the relatively lower water contents documented in the granulite xenoliths when compared to those found in the Precambrian granulite terranes from the North China craton. Considering recent studies on mantle xenoliths, it becomes evident that both basalt-hosted mantle and lower-crustal xenoliths may have experienced partial loss of their original water contents within the deep Earth.
在名义上无水的矿物中保留原始含水量对于了解地球深部的水预算至关重要。在此,我们对从华北克拉通大马坪采集的 15 块低钙花岗岩异长岩进行了矿物化学和傅立叶变换红外光谱综合分析。我们的分析表明,两个样品中的正长石晶粒显示出缺氢边缘,表明存在氢损失。根据实验测定的辉石中的氢扩散率,我们提出,尽管辉石中没有明显的氢分带,但可能同样经历了部分氢耗竭。我们的研究结果对传统的看法提出了质疑,即辉石中的氢浓度是大陆下地壳中原有水含量的忠实代用指标。我们将辉石中氢的损失归因于岩浆放气,这很可能发生在地表流动阶段。这一过程可以部分解释与华北克拉通前寒武纪花岗岩岩体中的水含量相比,花岗岩异长岩中的水含量相对较低的原因。考虑到最近对地幔异长岩的研究,很明显,玄武岩包裹的地幔和低地壳异长岩在地球深部可能都经历了其原始含水量的部分损失。

Air-sea CO2 exchange in the western Pacific influenced by monsoon and giant diatom (Ethmodiscus rex) blooms during the last deglaciation 西太平洋的海气二氧化碳交换受季风和末次冰期巨型硅藻(Ethmodiscus rex)繁殖的影响
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-16 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106335

The concentration of atmospheric CO2 increased rapidly during the last deglaciation due to CO2 outgassing from oceans. However, records of deglacial surface seawater pCO2-sw are sparse, hindering our understanding of the process and mechanism of air-sea CO2 exchange and its influence on glacial-interglacial climate change. Here we reconstructed surface seawater pCO2-sw for the last deglacial period using carbon isotope composition (δ13C) of giant diatom (Ethmodiscus rex) frustules from deep-sea sedimentary core collected in the Philippine Sea, western Pacific. Results showed that air-sea CO2 was fluctuating in the western Pacific during the last deglaciation. The gradients of air-sea CO2 are dominated by monsoon and biological productivity. The enhanced East Asian winter Monsoon and shallow thermocline during late Heinrich Stadial 1 maintained equilibrium in the air-sea CO2 exchange balance. During the Bølling period, enhanced East Asian Summer Monsoon has been observed to accelerate the dissolution of eolian-dust and promoted the growth of Ethmodiscus rex, which has been linked to increased primary productivity and, consequently, the uptake of atmospheric CO2 in the western Pacific. During the Allerød period, continued enhancement of EASM allowed the Philippine Sea to act as a weak CO2 source releasing CO2 to the atmosphere. During the Younger Dryas period, as the EASM weaken and the EAWM strengthen, ΔpCO2(sw-atm) decreased. Our findings highlight the tropical ocean’s role in deglacial air-sea CO2 exchange and provide insights into the monsoonal and biological drivers of the processes.

在上一次冰川期,由于海洋的二氧化碳排气,大气中的二氧化碳浓度迅速增加。然而,有关冰期表层海水pCO2-sw的记录非常稀少,这阻碍了我们对海气二氧化碳交换过程和机制及其对冰期-间冰期气候变化影响的理解。在此,我们利用在西太平洋菲律宾海采集的深海沉积岩芯中的巨型硅藻(Ethmodiscus rex)壳体的碳同位素组成(δ13C)重建了上一个冰期的表层海水pCO2-sw。研究结果表明,在上一次冰期,西太平洋的海气二氧化碳是波动的。海气二氧化碳的梯度主要受季风和生物生产力的影响。在海因里希第 1 海期晚期,东亚冬季季风增强和浅温跃层维持了海气 CO2 交换平衡。在博林期,人们观察到东亚夏季季风增强,加速了风积尘的溶解,促进了雷克斯虫的生长,这与初级生产力的提高有关,因此也增加了西太平洋对大气中二氧化碳的吸收。在阿勒罗德时期,EASM 的持续增强使菲律宾海成为向大气释放二氧化碳的弱二氧化碳源。在杨干世时期,随着 EASM 的减弱和 EAWM 的增强,ΔpCO2(sw-atm) 下降。我们的发现凸显了热带海洋在冰川期海气二氧化碳交换中的作用,并为了解这一过程的季风和生物驱动因素提供了启示。

Three-dimensional interseismic crustal deformation in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau using GNSS and InSAR 利用全球导航卫星系统和 InSAR 勘测青藏高原东北边缘的三维地震间地壳变形
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-11 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106328

The nature of the crustal deformation of the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is vital for elucidating the expansion mechanism of the plateau. We installed 21 continuous GNSS stations and obtained a horizontal velocity field with high spatial resolution. We also acquired a line-of-sight(LOS) velocity field with Sentinel-1 images covering the study area from 2014 to 2022. A multi-scale spherical wavelet method was employed to unify the reference frames of GNSS and InSAR data. After unifying the reference frame, the two data types achieve high consistency. Combining GNSS and InSAR velocities yielded the three-dimensional interseismic velocity field in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau. Furthermore, we analyzed the crustal deformation characteristics based on the three-dimensional deformation field. The crustal deformation exhibits a pronounced northeastward shift relative to the Ordos block, whereas the interior of the Ordos block remains remarkably stationary, behaving as a rigid unit. The Liupanshan fault is primarily characterized by uplift, devoid of any notable horizontal deformation across the fault. The left-lateral strike-slip mainly characterizes the Haiyuan fault.. The maximum east–west deformation velocity on the southern side of the fault is approximately 3.9 mm/yr, decreasing to about 1.0 mm/yr at the eastern end of the fault. The western segment of the West Qinling fault exhibits a minor east–west motion. Our result provides essential data for further study of the crustal deformation patterns.

青藏高原东北缘地壳变形的性质对于阐明青藏高原的扩张机制至关重要。我们安装了 21 个连续的全球导航卫星系统台站,获得了高空间分辨率的水平速度场。我们还利用圣天诺-1号卫星拍摄的覆盖研究区域的图像,获得了2014年至2022年的视线(LOS)速度场。我们采用了多尺度球面小波方法来统一 GNSS 和 InSAR 数据的参考框架。统一参考框架后,两种数据类型实现了高度一致。结合 GNSS 和 InSAR 速度,得到了青藏高原东北缘的三维震间速度场。此外,我们还根据三维形变场分析了地壳形变特征。相对于鄂尔多斯地块,地壳变形表现出明显的向东北方向移动,而鄂尔多斯地块内部则保持明显的静止状态,表现为一个刚性单元。六盘山断层的主要特征是隆起,整个断层没有明显的水平变形。海源断层主要表现为左侧走向滑动。断层南侧的东西向最大变形速度约为 3.9 毫米/年,在断层东端则降至约 1.0 毫米/年。西秦岭断层西段表现出轻微的东西向运动。我们的研究结果为进一步研究地壳变形模式提供了重要数据。

Age and provenance of the Baluntai arc-related complex (NW China): Implications for the middle Silurian − Early Carboniferous accretionary tectonics of the Central Tianshan arc in the southern Altaids 巴仑台弧相关综合体(中国西北部)的时代和成因:中新世-早石炭世对阿尔泰南部中天山弧增生构造的影响
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-07 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106318
The Central Tianshan, in the southern Altaids, is characterized by abundant gneiss–schist complexes. The origins and tectonic affinities of these complexes have been controversial in the past two decades. This systematic detrital zircon study used geological mapping of the Baluntai Complex (BC) in the middle section of the Central Tianshan to address these issues. Geological mapping revealed that the BC is a thrust stack that formed by a series of top-to-north thrust faults. Our 1135 concordant U-Pb detrital zircon dating results suggest that the gneisses, schists, and metasandstones of the BC were formed during the Middle Silurian to Early Carboniferous (ca. 433–346 Ma), rather than the Precambrian, as previously assumed. Detrital zircon age provenance of these samples suggests that they are sourced from a continental arc. Combining our new data, we concluded that the BC was generated in the arc-related basins by the northward subduction of the South Tianshan Ocean and that the Central Tianshan was a typical Japan-type arc in the middle and late Paleozoic.
阿尔泰山脉南部的中天山地区有大量片麻岩-片麻岩复合体。过去二十年来,这些复合体的起源和构造亲缘关系一直存在争议。这项系统的锆英石研究利用对中天山中段巴仑台复合体(Baluntai Complex,BC)的地质测绘来解决这些问题。地质测绘显示,巴仑台复合体是由一系列自上而下的推断断层形成的推力堆积。我们的1135年U-Pb锆石碎片测年结果表明,BC地区的片麻岩、片岩和玄武岩形成于中志留纪至早石炭纪(约433-346Ma),而非之前假设的前寒武纪。这些样本的锆英石年龄来源表明它们来自大陆弧。结合我们的新数据,我们得出结论认为,公元前大陆是由南天山洋向北俯冲在与弧有关的盆地中生成的,而中天山在古生代中晚期是一个典型的日本型弧。

Outer-arc active tectonic deformation off the Nias – Nicobar Trench: Insights from lithospheric stress and seismic slip models 尼亚斯-尼科巴海沟外弧活动构造变形:岩石圈应力和地震滑移模型的启示
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-06 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106299

This study investigates the seismic behavior and deformation characteristics in the outer-arc region off the Nicobar trench using stress inversion and teleseismic finite-fault modeling. The spatial and depth-wise variations in stress field in this region indicate variations in post-seismic deformation scenarios along the arc. The lateral shear, similar to the north Wharton basin, is the major deformational field in the Nicobar segment, favoring earthquake faulting along ∼ESE or ∼NNE nodal planes here. Shallow oblique-normal faulting and deeper oblique-reverse regimes are observed in the Nias region. These observations suggest that the plate bending effects directly influence the ongoing tectonics in the Nias region. Moreover, variations in the stress fields across the arc could be indicative of an uncoupled plate interface. Our finite-fault modeling analysis indicates dominant ∼ESE-WNW fault plane orientations for selected events from this region. This suggests the possibility of faulting within similarly oriented active shear structures within the northern Wharton Basin, contrasting the prevailing ∼N-S faulting pattern in that area. Besides, the centroid depths of most of these earthquakes are typically within the 600°C isotherm. However, the seismic slip may extend deeper by rupturing the crust, occasionally reaching upper mantle depths.

本研究利用应力反演和远震有限断层模型研究了尼科巴海沟外弧地区的地震行为和变形特征。该地区应力场的空间和深度变化显示了沿弧线的震后变形情况的变化。与北沃顿盆地类似,横向剪切是尼科巴段的主要变形场,有利于地震断层沿 ∼ESE 或 ∼NNE 节理面发生。在尼亚斯地区观察到浅层的斜向正断层和深层的斜向逆断层。这些观测结果表明,板块弯曲效应直接影响了尼亚斯地区正在进行的构造运动。此外,整个弧区应力场的变化可能表明板块界面不耦合。我们的有限断层模型分析表明,在该地区的部分事件中,主要的 ∼ESE-WNW 断层平面方向。这表明沃顿盆地北部可能存在类似走向的活动剪切构造,与该地区普遍的 ∼N-S 断层模式形成鲜明对比。此外,大多数地震的中心深度通常都在 600°C 等温线以内。然而,地震滑动可能会通过地壳破裂延伸到更深处,偶尔会到达上地幔深度。

The attenuation mechanism of high-frequency seismic waves in the Palghar swarm earthquake source area in Western India 印度西部帕尔加尔地震群震源区高频地震波的衰减机制
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-03 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106306

We study attenuation of seismic waves in the source area of Palghar swarm in western part of India. The intrinsic and scattering loss are separated using the Wennerberg method in the assumption of co-located source and receiver. The coda-normalization and single back-scattering model of coda wave generation are used for determining Q factors describing attenuation for body (QP and QS) and coda (QC) wave, respectively. The data set includes 1419 high-quality earthquakes (1.5 < ML<4.7) during intense swarm from 2019 to 2022 recorded by six stations in the Palghar region. Analysis is performed at five central frequencies 1.5, 3, 6, 12, and 24 Hz for varying lapse time windows of 5 to 40 s. The frequency-dependent P- and S-wave attenuations are expressed as QP=8.7±1f0.85±0.01 and QS=28.4±0.4f0.87±0.004, respectively in 1.5–24 Hz. The spatially averaged frequency-dependent coda QC(f) relations are QC=26.9±13f0.93±0.04 and QC=138.8±41f1.08±0.05 for 5 and 40 s, respectively. The S-waves attenuate faster than the coda waves in 1.5–24 Hz. The QP/QS ratio is greater than unity in the analysed frequencies. Intrinsic attenuation dominates the scattering attenuation in the whole frequency range. Dominant intrinsic absorption with its strong frequency dependence requires the presence of fluids in the shallow crust, as shown from other geophysical methods in the Palghar swarm area. Attenuation mechanisms are found to be similar for other swarm areas worldwide. The attenuation results could be useful while finding the earthquake source parameters to correct the path in the modelling for accurately estimating source scaling relations of swarm-related earthquakes.

我们研究了印度西部帕尔加尔地震群震源区的地震波衰减。假设震源和接收器位于同一地点,使用温纳伯格方法分离了本征损耗和散射损耗。在确定描述体波(QP 和 QS)和尾波(QC)衰减的 Q 因子时,分别使用了尾波归一化和尾波产生的单一反向散射模型。数据集包括帕尔加尔地区六个台站在 2019 年至 2022 年强烈地震群期间记录的 1419 次高质量地震(1.5 <ML<4.7)。在 1.5-24 Hz 频率下,频率相关的 P 波和 S 波衰减分别为 QP=8.7±1f0.85±0.01 和 QS=28.4±0.4f0.87±0.004。空间平均的频率相关尾音 QC(f) 关系在 5 和 40 秒内分别为 QC=26.9±13f0.93±0.04 和 QC=138.8±41f1.08±0.05。在 1.5-24 Hz 频率范围内,S 波比尾音波衰减得快。在分析的频率中,QP/QS 比值大于 1。在整个频率范围内,本征衰减在散射衰减中占主导地位。正如其他地球物理方法在帕尔加尔地震群地区所显示的那样,主要的本征吸收及其强烈的频率依赖性要求浅层地壳中存在流体。衰减机制与全球其他地震群地区相似。衰减结果可用于寻找震源参数,以修正建模中的路径,从而准确估算与震群有关的地震的震源比例关系。

Spatial variations in the effective elastic thickness of the Indian Ocean lithosphere 印度洋岩石圈有效弹性厚度的空间变化
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106315

The Indian Ocean lithosphere is a complex assemblage of large igneous provinces, seamounts, plateaus and ridges of different loading ages and tectono-thermal evolution. As a proxy for the strength of tectonic plates, effective elastic thickness (Te) illustrates the relationship between surface deformation and lithospheric rheology of the diverse provinces in response to long-term tectonic processes. Mapping the spatial variations in lithospheric rheology can aid in understanding the detailed tectono-thermal history of the Indian Ocean. In this paper, we perform an assessment of the spatial variation of Te for the Indian Ocean from the inversion of the real free-air admittance between free-air gravity anomalies and bathymetry corrected for the effect of density variations within sediments using a continuous wavelet spectral analysis. Incorporating the effect of sediments substantially reduces Te estimates and better corresponds with the tectonic units in the study region. The results show low overall Te over the Indian Ocean attributed to magmatism and temperature during a multistage opening process. We further demonstrate that temperature controls the strength of warm and young oceanic lithosphere, evidenced by the positive correlation between Te and geothermal proxies. Finally, moderately low Te values at the Southwest Indian Ridge suggest a relatively cold ultraslow lithosphere with sparse magmatism compared to typical mid-ocean ridges.

印度洋岩石圈是一个由大型火成岩区、海山、高原和海脊组成的复杂集合体,具有不同的加载年龄和构造-热演化过程。作为构造板块强度的代用指标,有效弹性厚度(Te)说明了不同区域的表面变形与岩石圈流变之间在长期构造过程中的关系。绘制岩石圈流变的空间变化图有助于了解印度洋构造热历史的详细情况。在本文中,我们利用连续小波频谱分析,对自由空气重力异常和水深测量之间的实际自由空气导入量进行反演,并校正了沉积物内部密度变化的影响,从而对印度洋 Te 的空间变化进行了评估。加入沉积物的影响大大降低了 Te 的估计值,并与研究区域的构造单元更加吻合。研究结果表明,印度洋的总体 Te 值较低,这归因于岩浆活动和多级开裂过程中的温度。我们进一步证明,温度控制着温暖而年轻的大洋岩石圈的强度,Te 与地热代用指标之间的正相关性就是证明。最后,西南印度洋脊中等偏低的 Te 值表明,与典型的大洋中脊相比,其岩石圈相对寒冷,岩浆活动稀少。

Tectonic evolution of the Early Paleozoic proto-East Asian continental margin: Inference from Paleozoic metamorphic rocks in the South Kitakami belt, northeast Japan 早古生代原东亚大陆边缘的构造演化:日本东北部南北上带古生代变质岩的推论
IF 2.7 3区 地球科学 Q2 GEOSCIENCES, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-09-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2024.106317

To constrain the incipient Pacific-type orogeny and tectonic processes in the Early Paleozoic proto-East Asian continental margin, the Motai–Matsugadaira–Yamagami (MMY) metamorphic rocks in the South Kitakami belt, northeast Japan were investigated. They are divided into two different types: amphibolite-facies rocks associated with serpentinite and blueschist-facies rocks associated with pelitic and psammitic schists. Three geochemical groups are identified from the MMY metamorphic rocks. Groups 1 and 2 resemble geochemical characteristics of mid-ocean ridge basalt and continental arc rocks, respectively. Group 3 exhibits considerable depletion of highly incompatible elements, which is caused by the high degree of partial melting of a hot mantle plume. The zircon U–Pb ages of Group 1 indicate that the protoliths experienced amphibolite-facies metamorphism soon after their formation in the Early Ordovician. Group 2 exhibits a coeval zircon U–Pb age with Group 1. The age distribution of detrital zircons in the MMY psammitic schists shows a peak of 500–400 Ma, the presence of Archean to Neoproterozoic zircons, and the youngest Late Devonian zircon. The following model is proposed for the tectonic evolution of the proto-East Asian continental margin: (1) the formation of an arc in the eastern margin of the South China craton in the Cambrian to Ordovician; (2) the subduction of a spreading axis and an oceanic plateau at the same time as the continental arc formation; (3) the consumption and subduction of arc materials by tectonic erosion; and (4) the formation of the Carboniferous accretionary complex and high-pressure metamorphic rocks under steady oceanic plate subduction. The proposed tectonic evolution model may also be applicable to equivalent Early Paleozoic rocks in southwest Japan.

为了研究早古生代原东亚大陆边缘的初生太平洋型造山运动和构造过程,研究人员对日本东北部南北上带的轮台-松ヶ平-山神(MMY)变质岩进行了调查。这些变质岩分为两种不同类型:与蛇纹岩相关的闪长岩型岩石和与辉长岩和辉绿岩片岩相关的蓝晶岩型岩石。从 MMY 变质岩中确定了三个地球化学组。第 1 组和第 2 组分别类似洋中脊玄武岩和大陆弧岩石的地球化学特征。第 3 组显示出高度不相容元素的大量消耗,这是由高温地幔羽流的高度部分熔化造成的。第 1 组的锆石 U-Pb 年龄表明,原岩在奥陶纪早期形成后不久就经历了闪长岩变质作用。MMY双峰片岩中的锆石碎片的年龄分布显示出一个500-400Ma的峰值,存在着阿新世到新元古代的锆石,以及最年轻的晚泥盆世锆石。对于原东亚大陆边缘的构造演化,提出了以下模型:(1)寒武纪至奥陶纪华南克拉通东缘形成弧;(2)在大陆弧形成的同时,扩张轴和大洋高原发生俯冲;(3)构造侵蚀作用消耗和俯冲弧物质;(4)在稳定的大洋板块俯冲作用下,形成石炭纪增生复合体和高压变质岩。所提出的构造演化模型可能也适用于日本西南部的等效早古生代岩石。
