The integrated approach of morphology of the volcanic and subvolcanic bodies, whole rock geochemistry and ASM data provides a robust tool to unravel the flow dynamics of the volcanic bodies and the sequence of the magmatic events. Such approach allows building up a model of construction of the lava pile considering the role played by the plumbing system. This paper investigates the emplacement mechanism of sill and lava flows of the Serra Geral Group (SGG), in the southern part of Mesozoic Paraná-Etendeka Magmatic Province (PEMP) in Brazil. Geologic and geochemical analysis were integrated with anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS), anisotropy of anhysteretic remanent magnetization (AARM) and rock magnetism experiments on 14 sampling sites in the Morro da Igreja region, top of the lava pile in Santa Catarina. The area is composed of low-Ti basaltic (with predominance of rubbly pahoehoe) and silicic lava flows, both intruded by a tabular sill that reaches a few hundred meters wide. The mafic lava flows are composed of Gramado, Urubici and Esmeralda magma-type basalts and andesite basalts. The silicic lava flows are massive or foliated, classified as Palmas type dacites. The sill has regular columnar joints and is classified as Esmeralda type. Magnetic mineralogy data suggests magnetite or Ti-poor magnetite as the main magnetic mineral for all the igneous rocks, and AARM results show anomalous fabric for the lava flows and normal or intermediate fabric for the sill. Besides the anomalous fabric sites, AMS data provide reliable directional data to infer flow direction for the sill, with initial propagation towards NE, followed by a preferential SE direction of magma flow. For the silicic rocks, the presence of vertical and inclined magnetic foliation suggest a lava dome geometry. The dynamics of the magmatic flow of the sill and lava flows associated with the compositional characteristics of the rocks allows stablishing the stratigraphy of the magmatic events in the area as well as the proposition of an emplacement model for the sequence.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 101974"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46254175","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}

We quantify the intensity of the qL observations from the April 12, 2014 Solomon Islands earthquake by calculating the peak-to-peak amplitude ratios of the qL and Love waves, and compare them with predicted qL intensities from previous shear-wave splitting results. We determine the polarity, timing, and period-dependence of the qL observations within the period range of 50–100 s. Our analysis reveals that the qL observations at stations in the Zagros and Alborz mountain belts exhibit opposite characteristics. In contrast to the Alborz stations, the intensity of qL observations at the Zagros stations exhibits relatively negligible dependence on the period, while their receiver-scatterer distances are considerably period-dependent. We approximately locate the anisotropic gradients that generate the qL waves. Our results suggest that a lithospheric gap is responsible for the shallow and abrupt variation in the belt-parallel trend of fast-axis orientations in the westernmost part of the Zagros. Additionally, the period/depth dependence of the anisotropic gradients along the boundary between the central Zagros and central Iran provides insight into the variation in the downward dip of the Arabian lithosphere. The anisotropic gradient located to the north of the Doruneh fault in eastern Iran indicates its role as a major shear zone and lithospheric boundary. Finally, we observe that the spatial distribution of the anisotropic gradient in northeastern Iran matches the higher strain-rate areas in the Kopet Dagh Mountains, suggesting coupling between the lithospheric mantle and crust in that region.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 101989"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47388385","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}

The Vrancea slab is located beneath the South-East Carpathians and generates frequent seismicity despite its remote location from active collisional boundaries. We analyse core-refracted shear wave (SKS) splitting recorded by permanent broadband seismic stations from the Romanian Seismic Network for periods up to 10 years, and compare our results with seismic tomography of the upper mantle. We identify several stations with large backazimuthal variations of SKS fast axis polarization and delay times both in the slab hinge zone, the back-arc and the circum-slab region, indicating complex mantle deformation patterns. To investigate the effect of a two-level rotated slab we invert SKS waveforms using cross-convolutional misfit combined with a neighbourhood search algorithm to model two layers of anisotropy. In the shallow mantle, anisotropy aligns with the upper slab strike and reorients along the strike of the lower slab at depths below the hinge zone. In the back-arc trench-perpendicular anisotropy switches to trench-parallel, due to the recent retreat and roll-back of the slab. Our results have important implications for understanding SKS interference from subducted slab fragments and provide evidence of the recent retreat, break-off and rotation of two Vrancea slab levels sinking into the upper mantle.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":"157 ","pages":"Article 101985"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43395835","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}

It comprises multiple intrusions formed by successive tectonic-magmatic processes during the Brasiliano / Pan-African Cycle. One of these intrusive igneous bodies is the Piquiri Syenite Massif (PSM), recently described as a multi-intrusive body formed by three successive pulses, dated by LA-MC-ICP-MS (U-Pb in zircon), with the oldest pulse located at the margins and the youngest in the centre of the intrusion. Pulse 1 (609.3 ± 1.5 Ma) comprises fine- to medium-grained equigranular syenite to quartz syenite and alkali-feldspar quartz syenite, with colour index M′15–30. Pulse 2 (603.4 ± 3.9 Ma) comprises medium- to coarse-grained equigranular alkali-feldspar syenite and alkali-feldspar quartz syenite, with colour index M′ 5–15 and fragments of Pulse 1 varieties.

As defined by the AMS data, the PSM magnetic fabric is concordant with the magmatic fabric, parallel to the outer edges of the body, dipping towards the centre. However, the construction and emplacement of the body have been the subject of different interpretations. The main objective of this work is to relate the general morphology of the massif and the behaviour of the pulses within the massif with the processes of formation and ascent of the magmas that have built it. For this, terrestrial geophysical surveys were carried out to obtain gravimetric data, with which the Bouguer Anomaly map was generated. Modelling by gravimetric inversion was carried out in nine profiles using tools from the Oasis Montaj software, which was the basis for constructing a three-dimensional geological model using the Leapfrog Geo software. Associating the geological model with the magmatic and magnetic foliations, including the magnetic lineation, it was possible to determine a change in behaviour between the youngest and the two oldest pulses related to the ascension process. In addition, the body’s general shape, with the greatest depths located in the eastern region, allowed us to relate the rise of magma to a structure in the region.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":"158 ","pages":"Article 101988"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50191980","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}
