英文摘要 | The low-velocity layer (LVL) atop the mantle transition zone involves diapiric segregating, melt upwelling, mantle mixing, magmatic eruption and the remnants. The lateral variations of the LVL could record the process of the subducting plates. The LVL beneath the eastern South China intensively affected by the subduction of Western Pacific plate since Mesozoic is imaged with observed P-wave triplication recorded by the dense Chinese Digital Seismic Network. The thicknesses of the LVL are 57 km for sub-region A, 40 km for sub-region B, and 20 km for sub-region C. The melt fractions related to the different velocity structures of the LVL beneath three north-to-south adjacent sub-regions A, B and C of the eastern South China are estimated with the bulk solid compositions, reference potential temperatures, compositions and dihedral angles. The spatial characteristics of the melt fractions and the LVL thicknesses are in accord with the recession directions of the subduction fronts of the Western Pacific plate. This consistency provides a powerful information for understanding the plate subduction process. |
