英文摘要 | Decoupling between Hf and Nd isotopes in trench sediments is an important way to produce, via subduction-related recycling, the mantle chemical heterogeneity that is evident in many arc-related magmas. Sediments collected from >7,000 m water depths on the southern and northern slopes of the Challenger Deep were analyzed to understand the factors controlling the variation in Hf and Nd isotopic compositions. These sediments were transported to both flanks of the Challenger Deep by synchronous density currents. All sediment samples show positive ɛHf values and negative ɛNd values, mostly plotting above the seawater and terrestrial arrays in Hf-Nd isotope space. Hafnium isotopic compositions in each depositional unit vary (high up to 9.2 ɛHf units) from lower, coarse-grained laminae to upper, fine-grained graded intervals, showing a good correspondence between ɛHf values and lamination within depositional units. Such variations are explained by the concentration of Fe-Mn oxyhydroxide-bearing clays in the upper graded intervals, whereas diatom fragments and arc-volcanic detritus are preferentially sorted into lower laminae. These findings demonstrate that the decoupling of Hf-Nd isotopes in trench sediments is not only linked to the nature of provenance but also to hydrodynamic sorting processes during sediment transport. Our results suggest that geographical and stratigraphic variations in sedimentary components (resedimented density-current deposits vs. oceanic pelagites), as well as overall grain size, of the subduction wedge can complicate Hf-Nd isotopic decoupling in resulting arc magmas. © 2021.
