Late Cenozoic intraplate volcanism as a trigger for hydrothermal venting in the Arctic southwestern Eurasia Basin

Communications Earth & Environment
Intraplate volcanism has occurred for the last 35 million years within Northeast Atlantic and Arctic margins, including the western Barents Sea, Svalbard, and northern Greenland. Earlier studies have suggested that some of this volcanism might be sourced

The depth geodynamic state and its correlation with the surface geological and geophysical parameters along the sublatitudinal profile of Eurasia

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2019
A cross‐sections of longitudinal (P) and transverse (S) wave anomalies (attribute δ(VP/VS)) is constructed along the sublatitudinal profile from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean across the regions of the latest Eurasian volcanism. It is correlated

Origin of Alkaline Basaltic Intrusive Rocks in an Exhumed Accretionary Complex: Implications for Past Petit‐Spot Volcanism in the Ocean

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Accreted basaltic rocks are expected to provide information on intraplate volcanism in the oceans. Basaltic rocks, originating from mid‐ocean ridges, plateaus, and seamounts, have been reported from exhumed accretionary complexes. However, basaltic rocks

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...

Ductile Crustal Flow Facilitates Intraplate Volcanism: Seismic Evidence From Tengchong, China

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The mechanisms and processes driving intraplate volcanism remain incompletely understood despite significant advances in recent decades. Here, we use high‐resolution multiparameter full‐waveform inversion to image the three‐dimensional seismic structure ...

Seismic Imaging Reveals Ongoing Modification of Craton Margins in Northeast Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Cratonic margins are commonly modified, yet the processes responsible remain debated. The Korean Peninsula, situated between adjacent cratons, the Japan Trench, and a back‐arc system, provides a natural setting to investigate this problem. Using 4 years of dense seismic observations, we image upper‐mantle structure beneath the peninsula with P‐

Pliocene adakite-like accent of andesites and dacites from the Orlov volcanic field (Sakhalin Island)

Геосистемы переходных зон, 2021
Adakite-like geochemical signature (high Sr/Y ratio at a low Y concentration) is recognized in andesites and dacites, associated with intraplate basalts in the Orlov volcanic field of Sakhalin Island.

Interior Rifting Coupled With Peripheral Subduction in the Rodinia Supercontinent: New Insights From the Tarim Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract After assembly, supercontinents are shaped by internal rifting and peripheral subduction. However, the geodynamic relationship between these two processes and their respective contributions to supercontinent breakup remain poorly understood.

Thick Underplating and Buoyancy of the Bermuda Swell

Geophysical Research Letters
Bermuda is an intraplate ocean swell that does not conform to traditional mantle plume theory. Unlike other prominent bathymetric swells, such as Hawaii, it lacks age‐progressive volcanism, a deeply rooted mantle plume, and modern volcanism.

Quantitative Assessment of Peridotite Tectonomagmatic Affinities Using Compositional Data Analysis and Explainable Machine Learning

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Peridotites record the compositional evolution of the lithospheric and asthenospheric mantle across plume‐related lithospheres, convergent margins, and rift‐related volcanic environments; however, their tectonomagmatic affinities are commonly difficult to resolve using traditional low‐dimensional geochemical discrimination diagrams.
