inaccessible The deepest hole that human beings have drilled is only to ∼11 km (Kola peninsula in Russia) which is less than 0.2 % of the radius of Earth Some volcanoes carry rock samples from the deep interior, but a majority of these rocks come from less than ∼200 km depth Although some fragments of deep rocks (deeper than 300 km) are discovered, the total amount of these rocks is much less than the lunar samples collected during the Apollo mission Most of geological activities that we daily face occur in the shallow portions of Earth Devastating earthquakes occur in the crust or in the shallow upper mantle (less than ∼50 km depth), and the surface lithosphere (‘‘plates’’) whose relative motion controls most of near surface geological activities has less than ∼100 km thickness So why we worry about ‘‘deep Earth’’? In a sense, the importance of deep processes to understand the surface processes controlled by plate tectonics is obvious Although plate motion appears to be nearly two-dimensional, the geometry of plate motion is in fact three-dimensional: Plates are created at mid-ocean ridges and they sink into the deep mantle at ocean trenches, sometimes to the bottom of the mantle Plate motion that we see on the surface is part of the three-dimensional material circulation in the deep mantle High-resolution seismological studies show evidence of intense interaction between sinking plates and the deep mantle, particularly the mid-mantle (transition zone) where minerals undergo a series of phase transformations Circulating materials of the mantle sometimes go to the bottom (the core–mantle boundary) where chemical interaction between these two distinct materials occurs Deep material circulation is associated with a range of chemical processes including partial melting and dehydration and/or rehydration These processes define the chemical compositions of various regions, and the material circulation modifies the materials’ properties, which in turn control the processes of materials circulation In order to understand deep Earth, a multidisciplinary approach is essential First, we need to know the behavior of materials under the extreme conditions of deep Earth (and of deep interior of other planets) Drastic changes in properties of materials occur under the deep planetary conditions including phase transformations (changes in crystal structures and melting) Resistance to plastic flow also changes with pressure and temperature as well as with water content Secondly, we must develop methods to infer deep Earth structures from the surface observations Thirdly, given some observations, we need to develop a model (or models) to interpret them in the framework of physical/chemical models In this book, a collection of papers covering these three areas is presented The book is divided into three parts The first part (Keppler, Litasov et al., Takei, Karato, Karato and Wang) includes papers on materials properties that form the basis x Preface for developing models and interpreting geophysical/geochemical observations The second part (Murakami, Tsuchiya and Kawai, Ohtani, Valencia) contains papers on the composition of deep Earth and planets including the models of the mantle and core of Earth as well as models of super-Earths (Earth-like planets orbiting stars other than the Sun) And finally the third part (Deuss et al., Trampert and Fichtner, van Keken, Iwamori) provides several papers that summarize seismological and geochemical observations pertinent to deep mantle materials circulation and geodynamic models of materials circulation where geophysical/geochemical observations and mineral physics data are integrated All of these papers contain reviews of the related area to help readers understand the current status of these areas I thank all the authors and reviewers and editors of Wiley-Blackwell who made it possible to prepare this volume I hope that this volume will help readers to develop their own understanding of this

ocean island subduction zone (super) continent 387 subduction zone IC1 (−) IC1 (−) IC1 (+) IC2 (−) IC1 (+) IC2 (+) Fig 13.9 Schematic illustrations for a physical model of IC1 and IC2 (i.e., two overlapping differentiation processes, melting (for IC1) and aqueous fluid-rock interaction(IC2)) Irregular streaks represent recycling ‘‘melt component’’ (e.g., recycling MORB and OIB), which are accumulated near the base of the convective system, resulting in vertical IC1 variations These streaks then ascend due to thermal instability to form plumes at ocean islands The horizontally distinct light (IC2-) and shadow (IC2+) regions represent those depleted and enriched in the ‘‘aqueous fluid component,’’ respectively, possibly corresponding to the focused subduction towards the supercontinents in the past (0.3 to 0.9 Ga) the Pacific Ocean and the southern Africa to the Indian Ocean Iwamori et al (2010) have argued that an aqueous fluid component, including hydrogen, subducts to the bottom of the mantle and could affect the seismic velocity structure at CMB, although the high IC2 regions partially include non-LLSVP A possible explanation for the partial correlation between IC2 and LLSVP will be discussed later These two independent fractionation processes responsible for IC1 and IC2 variations may overlap with each other: both the recycling melt-rich components and the residual portion may exist in both the slab to be dehydrated and the mantle wedge to be hydrated beneath the volcanic arc (e.g., as in Figure 13.7) Therefore both dehydrated and hydrated melt-rich portion may be created, and similarly, dehydrated and hydrated melt-poor portion can be created through the subduction zone processes These various products will be proceeded to the source regions of MORB and OIB to create the observed isotopic variability as in Figure 13.8 Integrating all the arguments in this chapter, we propose a model for water subduction from the surface to the bottom of the mantle Focused subduction towards a supercontinent may create a source region enriched in aqueous fluid components that will bring high-IC2 values through radiogenic ingrowth with time At the shallow part in the course of water subduction, a significant amount of H2 O is released by the time it reaches the choke point to form a magmatic-hydrothermal arc above the subducting slab Aqueous fluids ascent as porous and channel flows through the solid corner flow beneath the arc The solid corner flow may contain 0.1–0.4 wt % H2 O hosted by NAMs even after breakdown of major hydrous phases (such as serpentine and chlorite), and the resultant HBL just above the slab transports it to the mantle transition zone If a stagnant slab is formed due to, e.g., buoyancy at 660 km discontinuity associated with the phase change or viscous weaknening of the slab at 410 and/or 660 km depth also due to the phase changes (Nakakuki et al., 2010), the HBL may cause Rayleigh-Taylor 388 hikaru iwamori and tomoeki nakakuki instability to generate numerous hydrous plumes in the backarc region, redistribute water witin the mantle transition zone and the upper mantle in a relatively short time (Richard & Iwamori, 2010) If the slab penetrates into the lower mantle, several 1000 ppm H2 O may be also transported into the lower mantle As in the present-day Earth, both slab stagnation and penetration might have occurred depending on the physical conditions and the history of subduction (Fukao et al., 2001) A part of the lower mantle could be affected by the subducted components associated with slab penetration (Figure 13.7), whereas only the mantle above 660 km may be affected in the other regions A partial correlation between the seismic structure at CMB (including LLSVP) and the geochemical signature for an aqueous fluid component (i.e., IC2) may reflect such variability in terms of slab stagnation and penetration in time and space lower mantle, since fluid segregation is limited at a low fluid fraction Considering that both stagnant slabs and slab penetration are observed by the seismic tomography, the subducted H2 O is likely to distribute itself in both the mantle above 660 km and the lower mantle Finally, the mantle isotopic variability in terms of Sr, Nd and Pb has been discussed to detect such subducted fluid components Two major differentiation processes have been argued to be responsible for most of the mantle isotopic variability sampled by oceanic basalts, and one of the processes is accounted for by aqueous fluid–rock interaction Accordingly, global geographical domains have been found, which inherit the anciently subducted aqueous fluid component, possibly associated with focused subduction towards the supercontinents 13.5 Concluding Remarks The authors would like to thank Shun Karato and an anonymous reviewer for helpful comments We have examined water subduction to the deep mantle through subduction zones, associated with both slab stagnation and penetration at 660 km phase transition Based on numerical models and geophysical observations, several different stages have been recognized: (1) extensive dehydration of the subducting slab occurs between the surface and the choke point (i.e., and ∼200 km depth), above which a magmatichydrothermal arc is formed by water supply from the slab through porous and channel flows, (2) after breakdown of major hydrous phases in stage (1), a hydrous boundary layer (HBL) is formed just above the subducting slab, constituting a material and thermal boundary layer, and transport 0.1–0.4 wt % H2 O to the mantle transition zone by NAMs (and phase A depending on the thermal structure), and (3) the HBL may generate numerous hydrous plumes above the stagnant slab, hydrating the upper mantle regionally When the slab penetrates into the lower mantle, although the major lower mantle minerals could be essentially dry, the HBL may subduct
