Constraining the Permeability and Outer‐Rise Hydration at the Central America Margin
Abstract Subduction zones are important drivers of Earth's geochemical evolution; the presence of water within the subduction system has substantial implications for geohazards, including the style of seismicity and the volume of magma generated at arc volcanoes.

Abstract Only one quarter of the global ocean floor has been directly surveyed; the remaining three quarters are inferred from satellite altimeter‐derived gravity data using techniques developed in the 1990s. These classical methods correlate gravity anomalies with known depths and extrapolate bathymetry in unsounded regions.

New 2010 Maule Aftershock Catalog Reveals Structure of the Deep Subduction Interface
Abstract On 27 February 2010, a Mw 8.8 earthquake occurred near Maule in south‐central Chile. The subsequent rapid deployment of a dense network of seismic stations on land was able to capture the first year of its aftershock sequence. Here, we revisit this data set using picking Artificial Intelligence tools, a 3D velocity model of the region and ...

Thermochemical Controls on the X, 410, and 660 Discontinuities in the Central Mediterranean
Abstract The mantle beneath the Central Mediterranean is thermally and compositionally heterogeneous, as indicated by fragmented and locally stagnant slabs in tomographic images and HIMU‐like anorogenic magmatism. Mantle discontinuities are sensitive to both temperature and composition, and thus provide a way to quantify these heterogeneities.

Abstract We present array‐scale (∼500 × 500 km) anisotropic shear‐velocity models from two Pacific ocean‐bottom seismometer (OBS) arrays of the OBS Research in the Convecting Asthenosphere (ORCA) experiment: Young ORCA (∼43 Ma) and Old ORCA (∼90 Ma). Rayleigh‐wave phase velocities spanning 5–150 s are combined with Love‐wave phase velocities from 5 to ...

Abstract Water is believed to be transported, at least locally, into the Earth's deep mantle via hydrous minerals. Fluorine not only tends to interact with water but also influences the stability of hydrous minerals. Thus, knowledge of its stability could be important in understanding the deep‐water cycle.

Abstract In the transition zones between eastern boundary upwelling regions and subtropical gyres, upwelling and offshore moving filaments generated by frontal instabilities play an important role in the gyre‐ward transport of new nutrients and phytoplankton biomass. However, quantification of such transport using field data remains sparse.
