地幔柱形态,源区及构造理论研究综述

Literature Review of Studies on the Morphology,Source Origin and Tectonics of Mantle Plumes

在前人研究基础上总结对地幔柱形态结构的研究进展,包括模拟实验,数学模型以及地震层析成像的一些结果。针对目前对地幔柱源区的争论,提炼出五种代表性的观点。同时,对地幔柱的大地构造作用以及地幔柱构造理论及其与其他理论的联系作了阐述。

Based on previous study results, including laboratorial experiments, numerical simulations and seismic tomography, this article summarizes some advances in the research of mantle plume morphology. Besides, five diverse yet typical viewpoints regarding the source origin of mantle plumes are abstracted from present heated debates. Meanwhile, a brief introduction to the tectonics of mantle plumes is presented, its relation to some other tectonics theories discussed.
