Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Pacific plate slab pull and intraplate deformation in the early Cenozoic [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2014
Large tectonic plates are known to be susceptible to internal deformation, leading to a~range of phenomena including intraplate volcanism. However, the space and time dependence of intraplate deformation and its relationship with changing plate ...

Long‐Distance Asthenospheric Transport of Plume‐Influenced Mantle From Afar to Anatolia

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
The origin of widespread volcanism far from plate boundaries and mantle plumes remains a fundamental unsolved question. An example of this puzzle is the Anatolian region, where abundant intraplate volcanism has occurred since 10 Ma, but a nearby ...

The Warnie volcanic province: Jurassic intraplate volcanism in Central Australia [PDF]

open access: yesGondwana Research, 2019
Abstract The Cooper and Eromanga Basins of South Australia and Queensland are the largest onshore hydrocarbon producing region in Australia. Igneous rocks have been documented infrequently within end of well reports over the past 34 years, with a late Triassic to Jurassic age determined from well data.

THE BOOK BY G.R. FOULGER: FROM MELTING ANOMALIES TO HYPOTHESES ON PLATES OR PLUMES?

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
The book «Plates vs. plumes: a geological controversy» (Fig. 1) is intended for the advanced student who is not satisfied by the presentday interpretation of intraplate volcanism.

The Atlas of Morocco: A Plume‐Assisted Orogeny

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
We explore the connections between crustal shortening, volcanism, and mantle dynamics in the Atlas of Morocco. In response to compressional forces and strain localization, this intraplate orogen has evolved far from convergent plate margins.

Towards the development of a genetic classification of mud volcanism: An analytical review [PDF]

open access: yesГеосистемы переходных зон
Genetic characteristic of mud volcanism is essential for assessing and predicting mud volcanic hazard, as well as for studying the geo- and fluid dynamics of sedimentary sections.

A Plate‐Mantle Convection System in the West Pacific Revealed by Tertiary Ultramafic‐Mafic Volcanic Rocks in Southeast China

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2021
Cenozoic volcanic rocks in the East Asian continental margin usually form because of asthenosphere upwelling and resultant decompression melting, and their origins are important in deciphering mantle geodynamics attributed to intraplate volcanism.

Asthenospheric Flow From East Asia to the Philippine Sea Plate Revealed by Rj‐MCMC Inversion of Surface Waves

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
The Pacific and Philippine Sea Plate subductions have resulted in and controlled the development of a typical trench‐arc‐back‐arc system in NE Asia since the Cenozoic.

Mexican Volcanic Belt: an intraplate transform?

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 1987
La evidencia temporal y "geométrica" sugiere que varios eventos regionales tectónicos fueron contribuyentes de mucha importancia durante la evolución del Cinturón Volcánico Mexicano (CVM). Estos incluyen (1) el desarrollo de una zona tectónica de debilidad en el área del actual CVM, seguido durante la época cenozoica por (2) actividad tectónica en la ...
