The structure of the mantle transition zone (MTZ) in subduction zones is essential for understanding subduction dynamics in the deep mantle and its surface responses. We constructed the P (Vp) and SH velocity (Vs) structure images of the MTZ beneath Northeast Asia based on two‐dimensional (2‐D) triplicated waveform modeling. In the upper MTZ, a normal Vp but 2.5% low Vs layer compared with IASP91 are required by the triplication data. In the lower MTZ, our results show a relatively higher‐velocity layer (+2% Vp and −0.5% Vs compared to IASP91) with a thickness of ~140 km and length of ~1,200 km atop the 660‐km discontinuity. Taking this anomaly as the stagnant slab and considering the plate convergence rate of 7–10 cm/year in the western Pacific region during the late Cenozoic, we deduced that the stagnant slab has a subduction age of less than 30 Ma. This suggests that the observed stagnancy of the slab in the MTZ beneath Northeast Asia may have occurred no earlier than the Early Oligocene. From the constraints derived individually on Vp and Vs structures, high Vp/Vs ratios are obtained for the entire MTZ beneath Northeast Asia, which may imply a water‐rich and/or carbonated environment. Within the overall higher‐velocity stagnant slab, a low‐velocity anomaly was further detected, with a width of ~150 km, Vp and Vs reductions of 1% and 3% relative to IASP91. Such a gap may have provided a passage for hot deep mantle materials to penetrate through the thick slab and feed the Changbaishan volcano.
In view of the single stereotype of memorizing knowledge points with the help of traditional books and easy to distract attention in the process of memorizing with the help of mobile phones and computers, a mobile handheld device, memory assistant, is designed and developed based on Ebbinghaus forgetting law curve, embedded software and hardware development technology, and memory list cycle pushing intelligent algorithm designed by forgetting curve law as the core. The experiment shows that the device is convenient and flexible like electronic devices such as mobile phones and computers, and also has the characteristics of high efficiency and concentration of book memorizing, at the same time, scientific and reasonable learning plan can effectively improve the efficiency of users’ Recitation and memory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
