Additionally, the model assumes a carbon solubility of 1.0 wt% at the top of the mantle transition zone. The carbon budget within Earth's deep interior appears nearly balanced by the carbon uptake during subduction and the decarbonization of the subducting slab through metamorphic reactions.

Therefore, an Earth-like climate may be sustained by the carbon release associated with plate subductions.

These seismic events have not only brought to light the existence of the Bejaia-Babors Shear Zone (BBSZ) but have also emphasized the importance of discerning its structural components, depth, and extent. Our study focuses on the analysis of seismological data from 2012 to 2022, with a particular emphasis on elucidating the intricacies of this geological structure. Using the LOTOS (local tomography software) algorithm, we conducted three iterations of tomographic inversion, successfully obtaining horizontal and vertical sections that facilitated the identification and characterization of subsurface anomalies. The resulting 3D velocity models unveiled key tectonic structures within the BBSZ, including the Offshore Faults System of Jijel (OFSJ), South Greater Kabylia Fault (SGKF), Transversal Fault 1 (TF1), and the collision between the Lesser Kabylia Block (LKB) and the Babors (THF-1). Futhermore, brittle-ductile shears were identified along the Aftis Fault (AF) in the east and brittle shears along the Babors Transverse Fault (BTF) in the west. P-wave velocity analysis indicated the presence of rigid blocks. The observed high Vp/Vs ratio near segment 3 of the BTF fault suggests the presence of a fluid reservoir, likely involved in the Bejaia-Babors seismic sequence (2012−2013), as previously documented. These findings provide valuable insights into the tectonic framework of the BBSZ, highlighting major fault systems and the interaction between different tectonic blocks. The presence of brittle-ductile shears along the AF suggests complex deformation processes in this region.

If planetary dynamos should be driven by internal heat flow essentially (i.e. thermally driven dynamo, TDD), the answer relies on the energy budget of the planetary interior. On Earth, the Moon-forming impact provided a lot of energy ∼4.5 billion years ago and the magnetic field remains strong until present. Despite extensive work on this subject, the controversial nature of the outer-core's thermal conductivity (<em>k</em>_{<em>Cond</em>}) makes the energy budget of the core open to discussions. Here we present new experimental constraints on the evolution of <em>k</em>_{<em>Cond</em>} with pressure from 22 to 150 GPa and temperature from 1050 to 2700 K. <em>k</em>_{<em>Cond</em>} is obtained by numerical modeling of the mechanism of propagation of a short heat pulse through a thin foil of iron loaded, compressed and heated in the laser-heated diamond anvil cell. With good coverage of large P-T domains, the accuracy of our measurements enables an accurate modeling of <em>k</em>_{<em>Cond</em>} as a function of the molar volume of Fe and temperature. We refine a value of 37(5) W/m/K at P-T conditions found at the Earth core-mantle boundary (CMB). If the geodynamo should be TDD essentially, this implies CMB cooling by 380–450 K over the entire Earth history and an inner core 1.9(4) billion years old. By comparing the mantle efficiency to extract heat at the CMB with the power requirement to sustain a TDD, we show that the geodynamo is unlikely to stop until the Earth's core is solidified. This effect comes from a decreasing power requirement to generate the dynamo with decreasing the temperature at the CMB. Now applying our P-T dependent <em>k</em>_{<em>Cond</em>} model to terrestrial planets with various external radii and fractions of silicate and metal, we show that the core size is a critical parameter. For a core smaller than a critical size, mantle convection induces a sufficient CMB heat flow to enable a TDD. This can explain absence of dynamo on Mars and possibly on Venus also if its core would be relatively large. Calculations show that exoplanets 1.5 times heavier than the Earth are unlikely to present an alive TDD, especially if they present large bulk densities. In contrast, the small exoplanets reported to date could host a TDD.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54614,"journal":{"name":"Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors","volume":"360 ","pages":"Article 107315"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143150396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous geomagnetic field modeling methods typically use a fixed <em>a priori</em> Earth's mantle conductivity model to account for the induced field. This treatment may reduce accuracy, as electromagnetic induction depends on conductivity models. Here, we propose a new method that simultaneously determines the mantle conductivity model during geomagnetic field modeling. This method has the advantages of (i) self-consistently accounting for the induced field in geomagnetic field modeling, and (ii) simultaneously providing valuable information on Earth's internal structure. We implement the method into a new computationally parallel field modeling framework, which scales nearly linearly up to a large number of MPI cores. The Macau Science Satellite-1 (MSS-1), primarily aiming to accurately measure the Earth's magnetic field, was successfully launched on May 21, 2023. We apply our method to the magnetic data from MSS-1 as well as Swarm satellites and obtain the first self-consistent models of Earth's magnetic field and mantle conductivity. We also investigate how different conductivity models affect geomagnetic field modeling. Our results show that a fixed <em>a priori</em> conductivity model introduces field differences of about 2–4 nT in magnetic field models. These field differences, which are larger than the measuring accuracy of modern geomagnetic satellites, can be avoided by our method.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54614,"journal":{"name":"Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors","volume":"358 ","pages":"Article 107296"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143161725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
