Outline of Final Research Achievements

Geophysical observations and rock sampling were carried out along a flow line (plate motion direction) from the ridge axis to the past in order to clarify whether there are multi-million-year-scale temporal variations in the oceanic crustal production process, and if so, what factors are responsible for these variations. We found that crustal thickness varies on a 3-5 million year scale at the Central Indian Ocean Ridge and Southern Ocean, that mantle heterogeneity exists on a similar spatial scale, and that a decrease in spreading rate and melt supply occurs at the end of the back arc spreading system.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

海洋地殻は地球表層の7割を占める構造であり,中央海嶺や背弧のシステムの包括的な理解はプレートテクトニクスや地球のダイナミクス,さらに地球の進化において重要である.本研究では,これまで場所による多様性(空間変化)を中心に研究が進んできた中央海嶺研究に,時間変化という視点を入れた点で当該分野に貢献している.
