Experimental petrological studies suggest that the carbonated oceanic crust in the subducted slab may undergo carbon-induced partial melting and decarbonation in the deep upper mantle. Although slab geotherms in cold subduction zones fall below the experimentally obtained solidus of the carbonated oceanic crust, as many subducted slabs can stagnate within the mantle transition zone (MTZ), they could be warmed up during the elongated residence time. However, quantitative geodynamic studies regarding the effect of such slab stagnation on slab decarbonation through partial melting are lacking. To fill this research gap, we employ 2D numerical modeling to investigate the potential decarbonation behaviors of subducted slabs due to carbon-induced melting during their flattening within the MTZ. Our results demonstrate that the decarbonation rate of a stagnated slab that is hot and carbonate-rich can surpass 75%, whereas for a cold and carbonate-poor slab, for example, the present-day Pacific plate, the decarbonation rate is limited to a few percent. Hence, we suggest that geochemical signatures of Cenozoic intraplate basalts in eastern China and seismological observations of the low-velocity layer in the Northeast Asian upper mantle can be traced back to an early phase of subduction when the subducted slab was moderately hot and carbonate-rich. Our geodynamic model provides a quantitative constraint on the deep carbon cycle associated with subduction, especially in the deep upper mantle.</p>","PeriodicalId":15864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth","volume":"130 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143909122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analysis of lithospheric buckling with plate tectonic history is essential for inferring lithospheric strength. Based on 3D viscoelastic numerical modeling, we investigated the shape, symmetry, and coupling of layers under complex stress environments (i.e., compression/extension velocity conditions) depending on different strength structures in the lithospheric multilayer models. Our models included two strong and sandwiched weak layers in a low strength matrix, simulating the simplified strength envelopes of the continental lithosphere. Additional extensional or compressional boundary conditions were applied perpendicular to the main compression. The strength and thickness of the layers determine the degree of coupling of the layers. We found that the boundary conditions dominate the overall geometry and symmetry. The boundary conditions with the extension produced a smaller cylindrical buckling structure than the uniaxial compression models. In the biaxial compression models, the relative amount of shortening along both axes determines the axis of symmetry. The sandwiched weak layer with a larger thickness and lower strength decoupled the buckling structures in terms of wavelength and amplitude, providing insight into the decoupled lithospheric buckling beneath the Tibetan Plateau.

Using a heterogeneously deformed ultramylonite, we establish a correlation between cavity density and the quartz recrystallized fraction, which served as a general indicator for strain. Prior to fracturing, the cavity density increases linearly with the recrystallized fraction. The empirically determined area cavity density critical for ductile failure to occur is ∼7.5%. This trend indicates that ductile fracture results from the evolution of creep cavities. Ductile fractures are ubiquitous along the length of the exposed ultramylonite zones, spanning over 7 km.

The receiver function technique has been extensively utilized to constrain the crustal Vp/Vs, yet the reliability of measurements can be affected by complex structures and uneven distribution of seismic stations. Consequently, the interpolated Vp/Vs maps can often be biased by unreliable observations, especially in data-sparse regions. We tackle these issues by proposing a machine learning model that integrates multiple geophysical data sets to estimate Vp/Vs, leveraging the physical and structural properties of the crust. We train the model by compiling an extensive data set of global Vp/Vs measurements at 13,314 seismic stations and employ XGBoost to map Vp/Vs with other key crustal properties.

Compared to cubic and Kriging interpolations, the predicted Vp/Vs map from machine learning exhibits less local extremes and a better alignment with the first-order crustal structure across the continent.
