Although marine geophysical methods provide insights into subduction zone structures, most surveys consist of sparse 2D profiles, limiting our understanding of first-order controls. Here, we use active-source seismic data to derive a 3D crustal-scale P-wave velocity model of the Alaska Peninsula subduction zone that encompasses both plates and spans the Semidi segment and SW Kodiak asperity. Our results reveal modest variations within the incoming plate, attributed to a series of fracture zones, seamounts and their associated basement swell, collectively contributing to plate hydration. Basement swell appears to modulate the distribution and type of sediment entering the trench, likely impacting observed variations in slip behavior. The overriding plate exhibits significant heterogeneity. The updip limit and width of the dynamic backstop are similar between the SW Kodiak asperity and eastern Semidi segment, but differ significantly from the Western Semidi segment. These distinctions likely account for differences in earthquake rupture patterns and interseismic coupling among these segments. Additionally, high-velocities in the mid-lower forearc crust coincide with the location of megathrust slip during the Mw 8.2 2021 Chignik event. We interpret these velocities as intracrustal intrusions that contributed to the deep rupture of the 2021 event.

Due to the non-linearity and non-uniqueness of FWI problems, finding globally best-fitting model solutions is not necessarily desirable since they fit noise as well as the desired signal in data. Bayesian FWI calculates a so-called posterior probability distribution function, which describes all possible model solutions and their uncertainties. In this paper, we solve Bayesian FWI using variational inference, and propose a new methodology called physically structured variational inference, in which a physics-based structure is imposed on the variational distribution. In a simple example motivated by prior information from imaging inverse problems, we include parameter correlations between pairs of spatial locations within a dominant wavelength of each other, and set other correlations to zero. This makes the method far more efficient compared to other variational methods in terms of both memory requirements and computation, at the cost of some loss of generality in the solution found. We demonstrate the proposed method with a 2D acoustic FWI scenario, and compare the results with those obtained using other methods. This verifies that the method can produce accurate statistical information about the posterior distribution with hugely improved efficiency (in our FWI example, 1 order of magnitude reduction in computation). We further demonstrate that despite the possible reduction in generality of the solution, the posterior uncertainties can be used to solve post-inversion interrogation problems connected to estimating volumes of subsurface reservoirs and of stored <span></span><math>\u0000 <semantics>\u0000 <mrow>\u0000 <msub>\u0000 <mtext>CO</mtext>\u0000 <mn>2</mn>\u0000 </msub>\u0000 </mrow>\u0000 <annotation> ${text{CO}}_{2}$</annotation>\u0000 </semantics></math>, with minimal bias, creating a highly efficient FWI-based decision-making workflow.</p>","PeriodicalId":15864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth","volume":"129 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024JB029557","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142610376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we construct high-resolution S-wave velocity structures down to 15 km in depth using multi-frequency receiver functions from two temporary seismic arrays that largely cover the Tarim Basin. Our results reveal a strong velocity-increasing discontinuity across the basin and several large-scale high-Vs anomalies. The discontinuity is flat at about 3.5 km depth in the majority of eastern Basin but is uplifted and folded to ∼3 km depth around the Bachu Uplift in the central-western basin and depressed to more than 6 km depth in the northwestern and southwestern basin. The high-Vs anomalies, with an average Vs of ∼3.4 km/s, are concentrated under this discontinuity around the Bachu Uplift. Analysis with drilling data, experimental rock-physics data and previous geophysical observations indicates that the discontinuity corresponds to the top of early Permian strata, and the high-Vs anomalies are the magmatic intrusions from the early Permian mantle plume. There is strong deformation around the Bachu Uplift formed during Cenozoic Indian-Eurasian collision, exhibiting a strong spatial correlation with the Permian magmatic intrusions.

Whole-rocks and zircons with ages of the two older events have arc magma geochemistry, but Hf isotopes are distinct from Mesozoic Gangdese arc magmas. Zircon cores and, arguably, whole rocks instead derive from ∼290 Ma magma formed during southward subduction of Paleo-Tethys beneath the SLS.

These data suggest Permian igneous rocks underwent reworking during both the Early Cretaceous and the early Cenozoic, reaching crustal thicknesses of at least ~50 km during the early Eocene. Combined with regional data, Paleo-Tethys evidently experienced early Permian double-sided subduction within the Lhasa terrane, with back arc basins forming between the SLS and the Indian margin to the south.

The high VGP scatter of the Indin swarm can be attributed to the relatively high paleolatitude of 56° ± 6° for the Slave craton at the time of dyke emplacement.
