The intimate relationship between the dip angles of the subducting slab and the locations of volcanic arcs indicates that subduction zone magmatism is triggered by material input from the subducting slab (Tatsumi and Eggins 1995). The slab-derived components are thought to be aqueous fluids or H2O-rich partial melts of subducted oceanic crust. Therefore, knowledge of the stability of hydrous phases and the chemical and physical properties of aqueous fluids...
