Slab Subduction and Pull Link Magmatism at Active and Passive Continental Margins [PDF]
Geophysical Research LettersSubduction leads to voluminous arc magmatism at active continental margins; however, the potential far‐field geodynamic connections with coeval magmatism along opposing passive margins, are rarely investigated.

Active Tectonics of the North Tunisian Continental Margin [PDF]
Tectonics, 2022 AbstractA poorly defined boundary between the Nubia and Eurasian plates runs along the Northern Tunisian continental margin. The Tunisia margin is deformed by a slow NW–SE trending convergence resulting in a diffuse deformation zone with scarce and scattered seismicity compared to the seismic activity into the neighboring regions to the east and west ...

GNSS Constraints to Active Tectonic Deformations of the South American Continental Margin in Ecuador [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 GNSS observations constitute the main tool to reveal Earth’s crustal deformations in order to improve the identification of geological hazards. The Ecuadorian Andes were formed by Nazca Plate subduction below the Pacific margin of the South American ...

Russian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2022 We propose a concept for a geodynamic model of East Asia, taking into account the mechanism of the interaction between the stable part of the regional continental lithosphere and the active continental margin along the Kuril-Kamchatka and Japan island ...

First Evidence of Contourite Drifts in the North-Western Sicilian Active Continental Margin (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea) [PDF]
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 We present the results of an integrated geomorphological and seismo-stratigraphic study based on high resolution marine data acquired in the north-western Sicilian continental margin. We document for the first time five contourite drifts (marked as EM1a,

Four‐dimensional numerical modeling of crustal growth at active continental margins [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2013 AbstractCrustal growth and topography development in subduction‐related arcs are intimately related to magmatic processes and melt production above subducting slabs. Lateral and temporal variations in crustal thickness and composition have been observed in nature, but until now no integrated approach has been developed to comprehensively understand ...

Organic matter accumulation under the Middle-Upper Ordovician tectonic transition on the western margin of the North China platform [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe tectonic of the Middle and Late Ordovician in the western margin of the north China Platform is complex, and the accumulation models of organic matter of the Wulalike Formation formed during this period are still unclear.

Tectono-sedimentary evolution of the NE Dinarides margin during the Cretaceous Adria-Europe convergence [PDF]
Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2023 The Cretaceous sedimentation along the NE Dinarides margin occurred in basins above the Europe-dipping Neotethyan Sava subduction zone positioned between Adria- and Europe-derived continental units.
