ESS Colloquium: Zuxing Chen (Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences) "How Does Serpentinite Dehydration Influence Arc Magmatism? Insights from Metal Stable Isotopes"

Keywords: Subduction zones; Serpentinite dehydration; Arc magmatism; Metal stable isotopes; Mantle redox; Geodynamic modeling. Abstract: Serpentinites form through low-temperature hydrothermal alteration of mantle peridotites and can contain more than 13 wt.% water. In subduction zones, serpentinites occur in both the subducting lithospheric mantle and the forearc mantle wedge. Their dehydration at sub-arc depths plays a critical role in deep water and volatile cycling and may influence the oxidation state of the sub-arc mantle. However, distinguishing the contributions of fluids from these two serpentinite reservoirs to arc magmatism remains challenging, and the redox properties of serpentinite-derived fluids remain debated. These uncertainties limit our understanding of the role of serpentinite dehydration in subduction-zone water cycling and mantle redox evolution. In this talk, I will present our recent studies using metal stable isotopes to trace the sources and redox properties of serpentinite-derived… Event interval: Single day event.
