Future accreted terranes: a compilation of island arcs, oceanic plateaus, submarine ridges, seamounts, and continental fragments [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2014 Allochthonous accreted terranes are exotic geologic units that originated from anomalous crustal regions on a subducting oceanic plate and were transferred to the overriding plate by accretionary processes during subduction. The geographical regions that

A Global Plate Model Including Lithospheric Deformation Along Major Rifts and Orogens Since the Triassic [PDF]
, 2019 Global deep‐time plate motion models have traditionally followed a classical rigid plate approach, even though plate deformation is known to be significant.

The crustal thickness of West Antarctica [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2014 P‐to‐S receiver functions (PRFs) from the Polar Earth Observing Network (POLENET) GPS and seismic leg of POLENET spanning West Antarctica and the Transantarctic Mountains deployment of seismographic stations provide new estimates of crustal thickness across West Antarctica, including the West Antarctic Rift System (WARS), Marie Byrd Land (MBL) dome ...

Crustal thickness variations in northern Morocco [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2012 During the TopoIberia experiment, a total of 26 seismic broadband stations were recording in northern Morocco, providing for the first time extended regional coverage for investigating structure and seismotectonics of the southern branch of the Betic‐Rif arc, its foreland, and the Atlas domain.

Variation in thermal structure with crustal thickness for the crust beneath the Peninsular Malaysia
Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2023 We present a regional thermal structure as well as a new crustal thickness model beneath the Peninsular Malaysia and the surrounding regions. Curie point depth estimates for the entire area range between ∼ 17 – 46 km with a mean of 29 km.
