    Sequestration and subduction of deep-sea carbonate in the global ocean since the Early Cretaceous (2018)
    Geological Society of America (GSA)
    In: Geology
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018
    Description: 〈span〉〈div〉Abstract〈/div〉Deep-sea carbonate represents Earth’s largest carbon sink and one of the least-known components of the long-term carbon cycle that is intimately linked to climate. By coupling the deep-sea carbonate sedimentation history to a global tectonic model, we quantify this component within the framework of a continuously evolving seafloor. A long-term increase in marine carbonate carbon flux since the mid-Cretaceous is dominated by a post-50 Ma doubling of carbonate accumulation to ∼310 Mt C/yr at present-day. This increase was caused largely by the immense growth in deep-sea carbonate carbon storage, post-dating the end of the Early Eocene Climate Optimum. We suggest that a combination of a retreat of epicontinental seas, underpinned by long-term deepening of the seafloor, the inception of major Himalayan river systems, and the weathering of the Deccan Traps drove enhanced delivery of Ca〈sup〉2+〈/sup〉 and HCO〈sub〉3〈/sub〉〈sup〉–〈/sup〉 into the oceans and atmospheric CO〈sub〉2〈/sub〉 drawdown in the 15 m.y. prior to the onset of glaciation at ca. 35 Ma. Relatively stagnant mid-ocean ridge, rift- and subduction-related degassing during this period support our contention that continental silicate weathering, rather than a major decrease in CO〈sub〉2〈/sub〉 degassing, may have triggered an increase in marine carbonate accumulation and long-term Eocene global cooling. Our results provide new constraints for global carbon cycle models, and may improve our understanding of carbonate subduction-related metamorphism, mineralization and isotopic signatures of degassing.〈/span〉

    Mantle dynamics of continentwide Cenozoic subsidence and tilting of Australia (2011)
    Geological Society of America (GSA)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-10-01
    Description: Australia is distinctive because it experienced first-order, broad-scale vertical motions during the Cenozoic. Here, we use plate-tectonic reconstructions and a model of mantle convection to quantitatively link the large-scale flooding history of the continent to mantle convection since 50 Ma. Subduction-driven geodynamic models show that Australia undergoes a 200 m northeast downward tilt as it approaches and overrides subducted slabs between Melanesia and the proto–Tonga-Kermadec subduction systems. However, the model only produces the observed continentwide subsidence, with 300 m of northeast downward tilt since the Eocene, if we assume that Australia has moved northward away from a relatively hot mantle anomaly. The models suggest that Australia's paleoshoreline evolution can only be reproduced if the continent moved northward, away from a large buoyant anomaly. This results in continentwide subsidence of ∼200 m. The additional progressive, continentwide tilting down to the northeast can be attributed to the horizontal motion of the continent toward subducted slabs sinking below Melanesia.

    REPLY: Early to middle Miocene monsoon climate in Australia (2012)
    Geological Society of America (GSA)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-06-01
    Description: Travouillon et al. (2012) challenge our interpretation of proxy records (Herold et al., 2011), citing five points for rainforest at Riversleigh and across northern and central Australia in the early to middle Miocene; points that we refute here. (1) Cenogram/body mass distribution patterns Travouillon et al. (2009) were equivocal in assigning some fauna sites to open forest or rainforest using cenograms alone, but using cenograms and body mass distribution (BMD) in combination, they interpreted the majority of the Riversleigh sites as rainforest. Yet, their Discriminant Function Analysis (DFA) of the same faunas identified a mix of open forest (2/6) and rainforest sites (4/6) for the early Miocene, and all five middle Miocene sites as open forest. Thus their own data imply a mosaic of habitats in space and time in the Riversleigh area of northern Australia.

    Deformation-related volcanism in the Pacific Ocean linked to the Hawaiian–Emperor bend (2015)
    Nature Publishing Group
    In:  Nature Geoscience, 8 (5). pp. 393-397.
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-09-23
    Description: Ocean islands, seamounts and volcanic ridges are thought to form above mantle plumes. Yet, this mechanism cannot explain many volcanic features on the Pacific Ocean floor and some might instead be caused by cracks in the oceanic crust linked to the reorganization of plate motions. A distinctive bend in the Hawaiian–Emperor volcanic chain has been linked to changes in the direction of motion of the Pacific Plate, movement of the Hawaiian plume, or a combination of both. However, these links are uncertain because there is no independent record that precisely dates tectonic events that affected the Pacific Plate. Here we analyse the geochemical characteristics of lava samples collected from the Musicians Ridges, lines of volcanic seamounts formed close to the Hawaiian–Emperor bend. We find that the geochemical signature of these lavas is unlike typical ocean island basalts and instead resembles mid-ocean ridge basalts. We infer that the seamounts are unrelated to mantle plume activity and instead formed in an extensional setting, due to deformation of the Pacific Plate. 40Ar/39Ar dating reveals that the Musicians Ridges formed during two time windows that bracket the time of formation of the Hawaiian–Emperor bend, 53–52 and 48–47 million years ago. We conclude that the Hawaiian–Emperor bend was formed by plate–mantle reorganization, potentially triggered by a series of subduction events at the Pacific Plate margins.

    Origin of Indian Ocean Seamount Province by shallow recycling of continental lithosphere (2011)
    Nature Publishing Group
    In:  Nature Geoscience, 4 (12). pp. 883-887.
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-10-26
    Description: The origin of the Christmas Island Seamount Province in the northeast Indian Ocean is enigmatic. The seamounts do not form the narrow, linear and continuous trail of volcanoes that would be expected if they had formed above a mantle plume1, 2. Volcanism above a fracture in the lithosphere3 is also unlikely, because the fractures trend orthogonally with respect to the east–west trend of the Christmas Island chain. Here we combine 40Ar/39Ar age, Sr, Nd, Hf and high-precision Pb isotope analyses of volcanic rocks from the province with plate tectonic reconstructions. We find that the seamounts are 47–136 million years old, decrease in age from east to west and are consistently 0–25 million years younger than the underlying oceanic crust, consistent with formation near a mid-ocean ridge. The seamounts also exhibit an enriched geochemical signal, indicating that recycled continental lithosphere was present in their source. Plate tectonic reconstructions show that the seamount province formed at the position where West Burma began separating from Australia and India, forming a new mid-ocean ridge. We propose that the seamounts formed through shallow recycling of delaminated continental lithosphere entrained in mantle that was passively upwelling beneath the mid-ocean ridge. We conclude that shallow recycling of continental lithosphere at mid-ocean ridges could be an important mechanism for the formation of seamount provinces in young ocean basins.
