英文摘要 | Convergent plate dehydration is of significance in determining the coupling strength and seismicity activity at variable subduction contacts. Characterized by decadal M > 7.5 devastating earthquakes offshore and a lack of a magmatic arc in north-central Peru, the Peruvian megathrust remains enigmatic in terms of the along-strike heterogeneity of the thermal regime, slab dehydration, and seismotectonics. Hydrothermally controlled petrological metamorphism of multiple facies within the subducted oceanic lithosphere and subsequent fluid channeling and migration lead to fault instability and seismic and aseismic slips on the megathrusts. Based on 3D thermal modeling, we estimate the features of the Peruvian subduction hydrothermal regime. Our results show that (1) the shallow seismogenic zone (M > 7.5 earthquakes) along coastal Peru exhibits high slab dehydration rates and gradients and is associated with fault segmentation and the updip migration of fluids controlling the occurrence of great megathrust earthquakes; (2) the low slab dehydration rate (<0.01 wt%/km) in north Peru contributes to the absent volcanism in north Peru, while the high slab dehydration rate (>0.02 wt%/km) beneath south Peru facilitate the recurrence of magmatic volcanism; (3) the subduction-related slip behaviors at a certain depth resulting from heterogeneous variations in the coupled plate interface are determined by slab dehydration and petrological metamorphism in the subducted Nazca plate. The variation in slab dehydration contributes to the seismotectonic segmentation and slip variation associated with changes in the pore fluid pressure on the subducted megathrust. |
