Geotechnical behavior of mudstones from the Shimanto and Boso accretionary complexes, and implications for the Nankai accretionary prism [PDF]
Triaxial shear tests on mudstone samples from the Shimanto Belt and the Boso accretionary complexes (SW Japan and central Japan) were carried out. Pre-exhumation burial depths in the two paleo-accretionary prisms were up to 9,000 m and about 1,000 m for ...

The deformation pattern of subducting seamount: insights from the structural evolution of the Late Cretaceous Durkan Complex in the North Makran domain (Makran Accretionary Prism, SE Iran) [PDF]
The occurrence of topographic relief along the subducting plate is thought to play a significant role in controlling the architecture and the deformation processes of subduction complexes Seamounts and seamounts chain represent topographic reliefs of ...

The A-type granites with highly positive εNd(t) values in the West Junggar, Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), have long been perceived as a group formed under the same tectonic and geodynamic setting, magmatic sourceq and petrogenetic model. Geological

Deformation-enhanced diagenesis and bacterial proliferation in the Nankai accretionary prism [PDF]
Understanding diagenetic reactions in accreted sediments is critical for establishing the balance of fluid sources and sinks in accretionary prisms, which is in turn important for assessing the fluid pressure field and the ability for faults to host ...

The Kabaw Fault is a north-south trending arcuate suture zone formed between the accretionary prism of the Indo-Myanmar Ranges (IMR), and the Central Myanmar Basin (CMB). The lineament of the Kabaw Fault is defined as a stratigraphic contact zone between

The role of organic carbon in the Southern Uplands-Down-Longford Terrane accretionary prism, Scotland and Ireland [PDF]
Carbonaceous shales in the Southern Uplands-Down-Longford Terrane accretionary prism had extremely high potential for hydrocarbon generation in the Lower Paleozoic. Structural thickening in the prism enhanced the rapid generation of oil.

Exhumation history of the Hengchun Ridge and its implications for Taiwan orogenic processes
The orogenic evolution of Taiwan is thought to have occurred with a steady and southward propagating trend since the Late Miocene. Recent studies suggest a two-stage collision for the Taiwan orogen and that the collision occurred simultaneously along the

Low heat flow from young oceanic lithosphere at the Middle America Trench off Mexico [PDF]
Seismic reflection profiles across the Middle America Trench at 20°N show a high amplitude bottom simulating reflector interpreted as marking a phase transition between methane hydrate and free gas in the pore space of both accreted and trench sediments.
