Redox processes in subduction zones: Progress and prospect

J Wang, X **ong, Y Chen, F Huang - Science China Earth Sciences, 2020 - Springer
Oxygen fugacity (f O 2) is an intensive variable that describes the redox state of a system. By
controlling the valence state of multivalent elements, f O 2 affects the stability of iron-bearing …

Deserpentinization in subduction zones as a source of oxidation in arcs: A reality check

KA Evans, BR Frost - Journal of Petrology, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Previous studies have concluded that dehydration of serpentinites in subduction zones
produces oxidizing fluids that are the cause of oxidized arc magmas. Here, observations of …
