Tackley 2 1 Eathquake Reseach Institute, the Univesity of Tokyo, Yayoi, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo , Japan 2 Institute of Geophysics, NO H9.1 ETH Zuich CH-8092, Zuich, Switzeland (Received May 31, 2010; Revised Septembe 17, 2010; Accepted Septembe 28, 2010; Online published Decembe 13, 2010) We pesent a semi-dynamic subduction zone model in a thee-dimensional spheical shell. In this model, velocity is imposed on the top suface and in a small thee-dimensional egion aound the shallow plate bounday while below this egion, the slab is able to subduct unde its own weight. Suface plate velocities ae given by Eule s theoem of igid plate otation on a sphee. The velocity imposed in the egion aound the plate bounday is detemined so that mass consevation inside the egion is satisfied. A kinematic tench migation can be easily incopoated in this model. As an application of this model, mantle flow aound slab edges is consideed, and we find that the effect of Eath cuvatue is small by compaing ou model with a simila one in a ectangula box, at least fo the paametes used in this study. As a second application of the model, mantle flow aound a plate junction is studied, and we find the existence of mantle etun flow pependicula to the plate bounday. Since this model can natually incopoate the spheical geomety and plate movement on the sphee, it is useful fo studying a specific subduction zone whee the plate kinematics is well constained. Key wods: Semi-dynamic model, subduction zone, 3D sphee, mantle flow. 1. Intoduction Roughly speaking, thee ae two types of appoaches to modeling subduction zones. One is to impose the velocity and the geomety of the plate in advance, an appoach that has been used fo a long time (e.g., McKenzie, 1969; Knelle and van Keken, 2007, 2008). The othe is to calculate slab movement moe o less dynamically (e.g., Billen et al., 2003; Billen and Hith, 2005; Schellat et al., 2007; Moa et al., 2009). Both appoaches have advantages and disadvantages. Conceptually, fully dynamic models ae undoubtedly pefeable but this appoach is justified only when we know the heology of plate well enough. In addition, even if we know such a heology, it is often difficult to apply this model to the specific subduction zone, since we cannot contol the velocity and geomety of subduction zones. Howeve, it is a useful technique to study the geneal chaacteistics of subduction zones. On the othe hand, using the kinematic appoach, we can constuct models that incopoate the pesent velocity and geomety of specific subduction zones to compae the models with obsevations. The demeit is that this kind of model may miss some impotant dynamics of subduction, such as the change in plate boundaies and tench cuvatue with time (Schellat et al., 2007). Thus, we believe that these two types of appoaches ae complementay to each othe and that an undestanding of both type of appoaches will lead to futhe undestanding of subduction zones.

But, in eality, it is not so easy to constuct models based on it because it is difficult to find an appopiate velocity distibution to impose. Because of simpleness, this type of model has been constucted in the two-dimensional (2D) case since the ealy days of plate tectonics, but 3D modeling is a ecent development (e.g., Knelle and van Keken, 2007, 2008; Honda, 2009). Knelle and van Keken (2007, 2008) imposed the velocity of the whole subducting plate in a ectangula box to study the 3D flow of the cuved subduction zone. Honda (2008, 2009) constucted a model somewhat between kinematic and dynamic models in a ectangula box. The velocity on the suface and the small egion suounding a shallow plate bounday ae given a pioi. The velocity imposed in the plate bounday egion is detemined so that mass consevation inside the egion is satisfied unde the assumption that the elative velocity of oceanic subegion with espect to continental subegion is paallel to the plate bounday. Deepe flow is affected by the slab density. The model can include the tench migation kinematically. In this pape, we show that we can extend the same concept of Honda (2008, 2009) to moe ealistic geomety (i.e., cylindical and spheical geomety) and show some examples of the applications fo the case of spheical geomety. 2.

These equations ae discetized using finite volumes and they ae solved by the pogam StagYY (Tackley, 2008) which is modified to include plate-like featues as descibed below. Othe details ae descibed in the section of examples. 2.2 Implementation of subduction-like featues In the following discussion, the noth of the spheical coodinate system coesponds to the axis of otation and the convegence of each plate is pependicula to longitude, that is, the axes of both plate otations ae the same. In ode fo the slab to subduct at a given angle in the (adius)-φ (longitude) plane, we impose the velocity inside a small egion aound shallow plate bounday, which we heeafte call the bounday egion (Fig. 1). Figue 1 shows a θ (colatitude) slice of the bounday egion and its suoundings. The top suface is divided into two plates (plates A and B), and each plate velocity is constained by the igid otation given by V A = 1 ω A sin θe φ = V AS sin θe φ, (6) V B = 1 ω B sin θe φ = V BS sin θe φ whee 1 is the adius of the Eath, θ is the colatitude measued fom the noth pole, ω A and ω B ae the angula velocities of plates A and B, espectively. V AS (= 1 ω A ) and V BS (= 1 ω B ) ae the suface speeds at θ = 90 of the plates A and B, espectively. Equation (6) means that we can natually incopoate the vaiation of plate velocity along the tench by consideing spheical geomety. The velocity inside the bounday egion is detemined as follows. The bounday egion can be divided into two subegions: the continental subegion (uppe ight egion of Fig. 1) and the oceanic subegion (lowe left egion of Fig. 1). Defining V C and V O as the velocity inside each subegion, we assume that thei hoizontal components ae
3 M. MORISHIGE et al.: CONSTRUCTION OF SEMI-DYNAMIC SUBDUCTION ZONE MODEL 667 Fig. 1. Schematic view of the bounday egion aound the tench. The egion extends fom 0 to 1 (-diection), fom θ 0 to θ 1 (θ-diection), and fom φ 0 to φ 1 (φ-diection). The egion is divided into two subegions (oceanic subegion and continental subegion) and a diffeent velocity is imposed on each subegion (V O fo oceanic subegion and V C fo continental subegion). A finite volume whose size is (-diection) θ (θ-diection) φ (φ-diection) and whose cente is on the bounday ( PB,θ PB,φ PB ) is also shown. those of the igid body otation associated with each plate movement ω A sin θ (continental subegion) and ω B sin θ (oceanic subegion) whee is the adius. It may be a good fist ode appoximation to assume that the adial (vetical) component of V C is zeo, that is, the continental plate cannot subduct. Thus, V C and V O ae expessed as V C = ω A sin θe φ, (7) V O = V e + ω B sin θe φ whee V is -component of V O. In ode to detemine V = V (,θ,φ), mass consevation is consideed. Note that mass consevation in the continental subegion is aleady satisfied by the above equation. The plate bounday is placed so that it passes the vetex as PB = 0 1 φ 1 φ 0 (φ PB φ 1 ) + 0, (8) whee ( i,φ i )(i = 0, 1) is the adial and longitudinal coodinate that chaacteizes the size of the bounday egion, and the subscipt PB implies the plate bounday. Fist, we conside mass consevation in the finite volume along the plate bounday. The plate bounday is equied to intesect all the finite volumes along the plate bounday at thei vetices, which means that the numbe of finite volumes in the bounday egion is the same in the - and φ-diections. This means that the shape of the finite volumes in the bounday egion detemines the subduction angle imposed. Conside one of those finite volumes as shown in Fig. 1. Consideing that the velocity is unifom on each plane of the volume, mass consevation in this volume, whose size is (adius) θ (colatitude) φ (longitude), is given by ( PB ω A sin θ PB ) PB θ = ( PB ω B sin θ PB ) PB θ +V PB ( PB /2,θ PB,φ PB )( PB /2) 2 2 sin θ PB sin( θ/2) φ, (9) which gives V PB ( PB /2,θ PB,φ PB ) PB 2 θ = ( PB /2) 2 φ 2 sin( θ/2) (ω A ω B ). (10) Below this plate bounday shown by the shadowed aea in Fig. 1, we conside only the mass balance in the adial diection since the hoizontal component of the velocity does not change with φ. This is given by o V (,θ PB,φ PB ) 2 = V PB ( PB /2,θ PB,φ PB )( PB /2) 2 (11) ( ) PB /2 2 V (,θ PB,φ PB ) = V PB ( PB /2,θ PB,φ PB ). (12) This is because the aea pependicula to the adial diection is popotional to 2. Finally, fom Eqs. (8), (10) and (12), we have 0 1 (φ φ 1 ) + 0 φ V (,θ,φ)= 1 φ 0 θ φ 2 sin( θ/2) (ω A ω B ). (13) Theefoe, the velocity imposed in the bounday egion 2
4 668 M. MORISHIGE et al.: CONSTRUCTION OF SEMI-DYNAMIC SUBDUCTION ZONE MODEL is given by V C = ω A sin θe φ 0 1 (φ φ 1 ) + 0 φ V O = 1 φ 0 θ φ 2 sin( θ/2) (ω A ω B )e +ω B sin θe φ 2. (14) In the limit of infinitesimally small, θ and φ, this educes to V C = ω A sin θe φ 0 1 (φ φ 1 ) + 0 φ V O = 1 φ φ 1 φ 0 (ω A ω B )e + ω B sin θe φ 2. (15) Note that Eq. (15) also means that, at the plate bounday, the elative velocity of the oceanic subegion viewed fom the continental plate is paallel to the diection of the plate bounday. Based on the same concept, we can also obtain the velocity in the bounday egion in cylindical geomety as V C = ω A e φ V O = 0 1 φ 1 φ 0 (φ φ 1 ) φ 1 φ 0 (ω A ω B )e + ω B e φ, (16) whee the velocity of plate A and B ae expessed as V A = 1 ω A e φ. (17) V B = 1 ω B e φ Thus, this method is consideed to be a natual extension of that used by Honda (2008, 2009) in a ectangula geomety. The position of the tench, defined by the suface expession of plate bounday and expessed as an abitay function of θ, φ tench (θ, t), moves in the φ-diection as φ tench (θ, t) = φ tench (θ, 0) + ω A t. (18) 3. Examples 3.1 Flow aound slab edges: convegent-tansfom fault bounday Model As a fist example of application of the model, flow aound slab edges, that is, a convegenttansfom fault bounday as studied by Honda (2009) fo a ectangula box, is consideed. A schematic view of the model is shown in Fig. 2(a). The model is tuned to be simila to that of Honda (2009), and it coves the egion 5370 (km) 6370, 85.5 θ( ) 94.5, 13.5 φ( ) Thus a depth extent of 1000 km and a hoizontal extent of about 3000 km (φ-diection) 1000 km (θ-diection) is consideed. Initially, the tench is located at φ = 0 and 90 θ( ) 94.5, and the tansfom fault is located at 13.5 φ( ) 0 and θ = 90. The size of the bounday egion is 100 km (-diection) 4.5 (θ-diection) 0.9 (φ-diection), and this means that the angle of subduction nea the suface is 45. The top bounday condition fo tempeatue is T = 0. The bottom bounday conditions fo velocity and tempeatue ae pemeable (v θ = v φ = 0 and τ = 0) and no vetical conductive heat flux ( T/ = 0), espectively. The bounday condition on the walls pependicula to the θ-diection is impemeable fee slip fo velocity and no hoizontal conductive heat flux fo tempeatue (v θ = τ θφ = τ θ = 0, T/ θ = 0). The bounday condition on the walls pependicula to the φ diection is v = v θ = p/ φ = 0 fo velocity and pessue, and no hoizontal conductive heat flux ( T/ φ = 0) fo tempeatue. These bounday conditions ae equivalent to those of Honda (2009) fo a ectangula box. The Newtonian viscosity η is given by whee ( η = η 0 h() exp E R(T + 273) 1 (5960 < (km) 6370) h() = 10 (5710 < (km) 5960) 100 (5370 (km) 5710) ), (19) (20) and η 0 is set such that the viscosity at T = 1300 C is Pa s with h = 1 (Honda, 2009). The maximum and minimum viscosity ae set to Pa s and Pa s, espectively. The initial tempeatue is given by a half-space cooling model, that is, ( ) z T = T m ef 2, (21) κt age whee z is the depth and T m = 1300 C. t age is set to 25 My (unde the plate A) and 120 My (unde the plate B). The numbe of finite volumes used is 128 (-diection) 128 (θ-diection) 384 (φ-diection). Resolution tests have been pefomed fo a 2D model. It is desiable to check the effect of esolution in thee dimensions. Howeve, since a 3D calculation with highe esolution equies an impactical amount of compute time, we made tests fo a 2D model. Since the geomety of ou model is complex, we used a simple successive oveelaxation method to solve the equations of motion. Figue 3 shows the effect of esolution on the esults. The numbe of finite volumes used in the calculation shown in Fig. 3(b) is doubled in both the - and φ-diections ( ) compaed to that shown in Fig. 3(a) ( ). Results show that although mino diffeences can be seen, the oveall behavio is simila between these cases. Thus, this suppots the adequacy of the esolution used in this study.

The dimension of the egion is 1000 km (-diection) 9 (θ-diection) 27 (φ-diection). The velocities V A and V B ae imposed on the plates A and B, espectively. A detailed view of the bounday egion whee velocity is imposed is shown in Fig. 1. The dimension of the bounday egion is 100 km (-diection) 4.5 (θ-diection) 0.9 (φ-diection).

The numbe of finite volumes used is (a) 128 (-diection) 384 (φ-diection) and (b) 256 (-diection) 768 (φ-diection). The time elapsed fom the stat of calculations is shown on the bottom-left cone of each figue Results Figue 4 shows the esults of thee cases with a convegent-tansfom fault bounday fo spheical shell geomety. (V AS, V BS ) used in the calculations in Fig. 4(a, b, c) ae ( 7.5 cm/y, 0 cm/y), i.e., eteating tench, (0 cm/y, 7.5 cm/y), i.e., fixed tench, and (7.5 cm/y, 15.0 cm/y), i.e., advancing tench, espectively. We can see fom this figue that the subduction angle becomes gentle as the tench eteats, and it becomes steepe as the tench advances. Figue 5 shows coss-sectional views at depths of 200 and 400 km fo the cases of eteating tench (Fig. 5(a)), fixed tench (Fig. 5(b)), and advancing tench (Fig. 5(c)). Only the egions aound the subducting slab ae shown. We can see that the thickness of slab in the coss section diffes in these thee cases because of the diffeence in subduction angle, as seen in Fig. 4. The slab edge flow shown in Fig. 5 is inteesting in tems of the existence/non-existence of along-ac flow in the subslab mantle (e.g., Long and Silve, 2008). Honda (2009) fist epoted the esults of this type of model and showed that significant along-ac flow in the sub-slab mantle does not exist unless the tench eteat is lage. Compaing the esults shown in Fig. 5(a, c) with the coesponding case in a ectangula box (see figues 2 and 3 in Honda (2009)), we can see that the hoizontal flow aound slab edges in spheical geomety is simila to that in a ectangula box,

Yellow lines shows the isothems of 400, 800, and 1200 C on the plane with θ = Time shown in the bottom-left cone of each figue is the time elapsed fom the stat of each calculation. which means the effect of Eath cuvatue on hoizontal flow is small, at least fo the paametes consideed in this study. 3.2 Flow aound a plate junction Model As a second example of the application of the model, we conside the flow aound a plate junction with a fixed tench in a spheical shell. A schematic view of the model is shown in Fig. 2(b). Only the model egion and tench position ae diffeent fom the pevious example, and othe physical popeties, such as viscosity, bounday, and initial conditions, ae the same. The dimension of the model egion is 5370 (km) 6370, 84.6 θ( ) 95.4, 6.3 φ( ) 11.7, and the position of tench in φ- diection φ tench (θ) is given by φ tench (θ) 0 at 84.6 θ( ) 89.1 =, (22) (89.1 θ) /1.2 at 89.1 θ( ) 95.4 which means that the angle between the stike of the tench and the diection of plate velocity at 89.1 θ( ) 95.4 is nealy 50. (Note that it is not necessay fo the position of the tench to be a linea function of θ; it could be abitay.) The size of bounday egion is 100 km (-diection) 0.9 (φ-diection) fo each θ. The numbe of finite volumes

An equidistant cylindical pojection is used. Tempeatue and velocity fields ae shown. Flow pependicula to the plate bounday exists in the aea enclosed by the white dotted line.

(V AS, V BS ) used in this study is (0 cm/y, 7.5 cm/y). Figue 6(a) shows the 3D tempeatue field and Fig. 6(b) shows a hoizontal view at a depth of 100 km. Inteestingly, we see that thee is a flow pependicula to the plate bounday in the aea enclosed by white dashed line, and the magnitude of this velocity component is much lage than that of adial velocity component. Simila flow is also epoted by Knelle and van Keken (2008) in 3D ectangula geomety. Nakajima et al. (2006) examined the fast diections of shea-wave splitting nea the plate junction of the southwesten pat of the Kuile ac and the notheasten Japan ac. Fom thei analysis, they suggested that mantle etun flow occus sub-paallel to the local maximum dip of the slab. The esult shown in Fig. 6 may suppot thei infeence. Howeve, futhe systematic study, such as the estimate of seismic anisotopy (e.g., Knelle and van Keken, 2007, 2008) is necessay. 4. Discussion and Conclusion In this pape, we have constucted a semi-dynamic subduction zone model in a 3D spheical shell and shown some applications. Ou model enables the slab to subduct by imposing velocities in a small bounday egion so that the numbe of finite volumes needed is smalle than that equied fo a complex slab heology to achieve subductionlike featues, such as the naow low viscosity shea zone (Billen and Hith, 2005). Additionally, the model can easily incopoate obsevations such as the geomety of the shallow pat of the slab and plate bounday. The model can also include the ove-iding plate, which is not consideed
9 M. MORISHIGE et al.: CONSTRUCTION OF SEMI-DYNAMIC SUBDUCTION ZONE MODEL 673 in the fee subduction model (e.g., Schellat et al., 2007; Moa et al., 2009) but is sometimes impotant (Yamato et al., 2009). Howeve, the model also has a numbe of limitations, such as an inability to handle moe than two plates. In this study, we assume that the pole of both plate motions coincides, although this is not tue in geneal. In theoy, such a case could be handled by splitting the plate motion into the motion elative to the efeence plate and the absolute motion of the efeence plate. In pactice, howeve, this will make the calculations difficult because of the complex bounday conditions. Despite these difficulties, ou model is useful fo undestanding the chaacte of subduction zones and can be applied fo a paticula pai of plates, such as the Pacific plate and slowly moving Euasia plate. It is obvious that ou model is bette on the point that this uses a 3D sphee, which is the Eath s geomety, and the effects of Eath cuvatue can be coectly taken into account. In ou examples, we do not see a significant diffeence between the esults in the 3D ectangula box and spheical shell geomety. If, howeve, we modeled a boade aea o deepe pocesses, such as the defomation of subducted slabs that include the stagnation and the tea in the tansition zone and the buckling at the CMB (e.g., Fukao et al., 2001; Loubet et al., 2009; Obayashi et al., 2009), the diffeence is expected to become moe significant, and ou model might give a bette undestanding of such phenomena.
