Intraplate Basalts in Eastern Continental China Record the Subduction History of the Pacific Plate

Geophysical Research Letters
To assess whether intraplate magmatism in eastern continental China records the subduction history of the Pacific plate, we plotted elemental compositions of the volcanic rocks in this region since the Early Cretaceous as a function of age.

Evidence for Miocene subduction beneath the Alboran Sea (Western Mediterranean) from 40Ar/39Ar age dating and the geochemistry of volcanic rocks from holes 977A and 978A [PDF]

, 1999
Volcanic pebbles in gravels from Sites 977 and 978 in the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean) were dated (using the 40Ar/ 39Ar single-crystal laser technique) and analyzed for their major- and trace-element compositions (determined by X-ray ...

Modelling tectonic styles and ultra-high pressure (UHP) rock exhumation during the transition from oceanic subduction to continental collision

, 2008
The tectonic styles of the transition from oceanic subduction to continental collision and their implications for exhumation of UHP material are tested in a series of numerical thermal-mechanical models that address subduction-collision dynamics at ...

Terrane Collision‐Induced Subduction Initiation: Mode Selection and Implications for Western Pacific Subduction System

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
In the regime of plate tectonics, the subduction of an oceanic plate generally terminates with the collision and accretion of continental terranes. Then, a new subduction zone may form in the neighboring oceanic plates, which is defined as the terrane ...

Heterogeneous Mantle Metasomatism Controlled by Continental Subduction: Evidence From Post‐Collisional Mafic Rocks in the North Qaidam Orogen

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Post‐collisional mafic rocks not only record geodynamic processes at the end of the orogenic cycle but also retain various clues regarding preceding interactions between subducted slabs and mantle wedges.

Tectonics of Part of the Vinodol Valley Within the Model of the Continental Crust Subduction [PDF]

, 1999
The Vinodol valley is analysed as an example of one of the united zones of shallow continental subduction. The structural analysis together with the interpretation of structural dynamics of the central part of the valley is performed in that sense.
