Journal ArticleDOI
Deep slab hydration induced by bending-related variations in tectonic pressure
TL;DR: In this article, the authors use two-dimensional numerical experiments to show that stress changes induced by the bending oceanic plate produce subhydrostatic or even negative pressure gradients along normal faults, favouring downward pumping of fluids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fault-induced seismic anisotropy by hydration in subducting oceanic plates
TL;DR: Faccenda et al. as discussed by the authors showed that the amount and geometry of seismic anisotropic measured in the forearc regions of subduction zones strongly depend on the preferred orientation of hydrated faults in the subducting oceanic plate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Styles of post-subduction collisional orogeny: Influence of convergence velocity, crustal rheology and radiogenic heat production
TL;DR: A number of models of continental collision already exist, but the role of variable coupling between plates still remains to be explored in addition, heat generation by radioactive decay may be quite variable as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water in the slab: A trilogy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors grouped the geological and geophysical phenomena associated with water in the slab into three different categories: those related to 1) the storage of water at the surface, 2) the subduction of a hydrated slab and 3) its dehydration that ultimately leads to mantle regassing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid flow during slab unbending and dehydration: Implications for intermediate‐depth seismicity, slab weakening and deep water recycling
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed thermomechanical models of a dynamically subducting and dehydrating oceanic plate and showed that during slab dehydration, unbending stresses drive part of the released fluids into the cold core of the plate toward a level of strong tectonic underpressure and neutral (slab-normal) pressure gradients.
