Dehydration at subduction zones and the geochemistry of slab fluids

Abstract: Subducting oceanic slabs undergo metamorphic dehydration with the increase of temperature and pressure during subduction. Dehydration is an essential step for element recycling, and slab fluids are critical agents for mediating slab-mantle interaction. Dehydration is mainly controlled by the thermal structure of subduction zones and the stability of hydrous minerals. At fore-arc depths, slab dehydration produces aqueous fluid with dissolved salts such as NaCl. As subduction proceeds deeper, the content of sili… Show more

“…Several authors have documented the role of sediments, mid-ocean basalts and different minerals in relation to water-carrying capacity (and, therefore, also salts) into the subduction zone (Hacker et al Part 1 and 2 (2003), Li and Ni (2020)).…”

“…Several processes that occur in the subduction zone, such as shear heating, partial melting, hydrothermal cooling, and dehydration, were not covered in this study. Dehydration and partial melting are related to element recycling, intermediate and deep earthquakes, and double seismic zones (Seno et al, 2001;Li and Ni, 2020). Dehydration is essentially a result of the slab responding to the temperature and pressure change during subduction.…”

“…Dehydration is essentially a result of the slab responding to the temperature and pressure change during subduction. Dehydration has significantly different effects in cold and hot subduction zones (Li and Ni, 2020). The subduction zone to the north of the CTJ is cold and that to the south is hot.…”

“…The oceanic plate is dehydrated during subduction at these margins. During this subduction, the oceanic plate releases fluids, and these fluids join the overlying mantle wedge, causing partial melting of the mantle wedge and generating island arc basaltic magma (Sun et al, 2014;Zheng et al, 2015;Li and Ni, 2020;Liu et al, 2019;Zheng et al, 2019;Wei and Zheng, 2020;Xiong et al, 2020). Besides the basalt, there are a number of silicic magmas located on convergent plate margins (even typical oceanic island arcs, such as Tonga and the Kuril Islands), as shown in Figure 1.…”
