Fluid and mass transfer at subduction interfaces—The field metamorphic record

GE Bebout, SC Penniston-Dorland - Lithos, 2016 - Elsevier
The interface between subducting oceanic slabs and the hanging wall is a structurally and

The role of serpentinites in cycling of carbon and sulfur: Seafloor serpentinization and subduction metamorphism

JC Alt, EM Schwarzenbach, GL Früh-Green… - Lithos, 2013 - Elsevier
We summarize the uptake of carbon and sulfur during serpentinization of seafloor
peridotites, and discuss the fate of these volatiles during subduction of serpentinite. We use …

Pressure–temperature estimates of the lizardite/antigorite transition in high pressure serpentinites

S Schwartz, S Guillot, B Reynard, R Lafay, B Debret… - Lithos, 2013 - Elsevier
Serpentine minerals in natural samples are dominated by lizardite and antigorite. In spite of
numerous laboratory experiments, the stability fields of these species remain poorly …

Forearc seismogenesis in a weakly coupled subduction zone influenced by slab mantle fluids

D Cordell, S Naif, R Evans, K Key, S Constable… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
The role of fluids in earthquake rupture is key to understanding seismic hazards, particularly
at subduction zones. The Shumagin Gap, Alaska, is notable due to a paucity of large …

Mantle wedge oxidation from deserpentinization modulated by sediment-derived fluids

JA Padrón-Navarta, V López Sánchez-Vizcaíno… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
High-pressure dehydration of serpentinite during subduction generates fluids that flux and
melt the overlying mantle wedge, forming primary arc basalts. These basalts are …

Dehydration of subducting serpentinite: implications for halogen mobility in subduction zones and the deep halogen cycle

T John, M Scambelluri, M Frische, JD Barnes… - Earth and Planetary …, 2011 - Elsevier
We investigated the halogen (Cl, F, Br, and I) chemistry of serpentinites that record
progressive dehydration during subduction from shallow oceanic environments via …

Recycling of water, carbon, and sulfur during subduction of serpentinites: A stable isotope study of Cerro del Almirez, Spain

JC Alt, CJ Garrido, WC Shanks III, A Turchyn… - Earth and Planetary …, 2012 - Elsevier
We use the concentrations and isotope compositions of water, carbon, and sulfur in
serpentinites and their dehydration products to trace the cycling of volatiles during …
