There is no systematic variation in delta (super 37) Cl values along the volcanic front in either gas or ash samples. In contrast, distinct variations occur across the arc, implying variations in the fluid source at different depths within the subduction zone. Serpentinite clasts and serpentine muds from the seamounts tap a source of approximately 30 km depth and have delta (super 37) Cl values of structurally bound chloride of +0.4 per mil + or - 0.4 per mil (n = 24), identical to most seafloor serpentinites, suggesting a serpentinite (chrysotile and/or lizardite to antigorite transition) fluid source. Tapping deeper levels of the subduction zone (approximately 115-130 km depth), volcanic gases and ashes have delta (super 37) Cl values averaging -1.1 per mil + or - 1.0 per mil (n = 29), precisely overlapping the range measured in sediments from ODP cores (-1.1 per mil + or - +0.7 per mil, n = 11) and limited altered oceanic crust (AOC). Both sediments and AOC are possible Cl sources in the volcanic front. The Guguan cross-chain basalts come from the greatest depths and have an average delta (super 37) Cl value of +0.2 per mil + or - 0.2 per mil (n = 3), suggesting a second serpentine-derived source, in this case from antigorite breakdown at approximately 200 km depth.completedOceanographyIsotope geochemistryAsiabasaltsBonin IslandschlorineCl-37/Cl-35crustFar EastgasesgeochemistryhalogensHonshuigneous rocksisland arcsisotope ratiosisotopesIzu-Bonin ArcIzu-shichitoJapanlavaLeg 129Leg 185Mariana IslandsMariana Troughmarine sedimentsmetaigneous rocksmetamorphic rocksmetasomatic rocksMicronesiaNorth PacificNorthwest PacificOcean Drilling ProgramOceaniaoceanic crustODP Site 1149ODP Site 800ODP Site 801ODP Site 802Pacific OceanPigafetta Basinseamountssedimentsserpentineserpentine groupserpentinitesheet silicatessilicatesstable isotopessubduction zonesvolcanic ashvolcanic rocksWest PacificWest Pacific Ocean Islandsurn:org.iodp:exp:129urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:185urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:185:site:1149urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:185urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:129:site:800urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:129urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:129:site:801urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:129urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:185:site:801urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:185urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:129:site:802urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:129urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation137.0700147.000012.000034.3000Mariana IslandsBonin IslandsIzu-shichitoWith GSA Data Repository Item 2008226
