| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Geophysical observation has suggested that the mantle transition zone beneath NE China is hydrous, and the subducted Pacific slab is stagnated in the transition zone. To estimate the rate of the dehydration of the stagnant slab, petrological and geochemical analyses were conducted on volcanic rocks of variable ages (60-0 Ma) above the stagnant slab. Unfortunately, the rate of the dehydration could not have been estimated because of no significant temporal variation in the water contents of the source mantle. However, this study showed that the mantle transition zone have been hydrous between 60 and 0 Ma. In addition, this study proposed a general model about the origin of the intraplate magmatism over the stagnant slab.
