Abstract

The distribution of heat flow in the marginal seas, as well as on the continents and oceans, depends on the age of the last stage of tectonic-magmatic activity. The experimental dependences for mid-ocean ridges and back-arc basins practically coincide. Such a coincidence provides a basis for concluding on the applicability of fundamental theoretical developments of the spreading concept to back-arc basins, in particular, to estimating the time of their formation. The most important geological factors affecting the deviation of the heat flow of the marginal seas from the functional heat flow – age dependence for the oceanic lithosphere are: hydrothermal circulation, rapid sedimentation, and repeated tectonomagmatic activation (one- or two-stage cooling scenario of the lithosphere).

Comparison of thermal regime of marginal seas and island-arc systems leads to general conclusions:

Mode of subduction at island-arc systems and steepness of the Benioff zone slope are depending on geological features of colliding slabs, such as basement age, thermal regime, seafloor topography and sediment thickness of the underthrusting slab; relative speed and angle of lithospheric plates convergence.

Thermal regime of subduction zone is reflected in the petrological and geochemical features of island arc and back-arc magmatism. An additional powerful heat source near the contact of the underthrusting plate with the mantle wedge located above, leads to melting at depths about 80–120 km. Possible heat sources are the adiabatic compression of the substance of the moving plate and phase transitions.

The release of water during the dehydration of serpentinites and other water-containing minerals leads to mutually compensating effects: a decrease of the solidus temperature on the one hand, the absorption of heat and a decrease in frictional heat generation on the other. In the overriding block, exothermic reactions of retrograde metamorphism restrain the cooling caused by the advance of the cold block.
