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 …

The geological and geophysical phenomena associated with water in the slab can be
grouped into three different categories: those related to 1) the storage of water in the oceanic …

Rock pillars in rock engineering are affected by the stress concentration, which is uneven
and can lead to potential instability after loading disturbance. In this paper, considering the …

Based on a compilation of published sources, rocks referred to as adakites show the
following geochemical and isotopic characteristics: SiO2≥ 56 wt percent, Al2O3≥ 15 wt …

Non-volcanic seismic tremor was discovered in the Nankai trough subduction zone in
southwest Japan and subsequently identified in the Cascadia subduction zone. In both …

Earth is the only known planet with subduction zones and plate tectonics, and this fact
demonstrates that special conditions are required for this mode of planetary heat loss …

Double-difference (DD) tomography is a generalization of DD location; it simultaneously
solves for the three-dimensional velocity structure and seismic event locations. DD …

We use adjoint tomography to iteratively determine seismic models of the crust and upper
mantle beneath the European continent and the North Atlantic Ocean. Three-component …

Modern-style plate tectonics can be tracked into the geologic past with petrotectonic
assemblages and other plate-tectonic indicators. These indicators suggest that modern plate …

We use data from the Chile Argentina Geophysical Experiment (CHARGE) broad-band
seismic deployment to refine past observations of the geometry and deformation within the …
