Geochemical Constraints on Spatial‐Temporal Distribution and Origin of Anomalous Mantle in the Western Pacific Basins

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Seafloor basalt samples recovered from the Caroline Basin (CB), the Parece Vela Basin (PVB), and the Western Philippine Sea Plate (WPSP) are analyzed for whole‐rock major and trace elements (including H2O), Sr‐Nd‐Pb‐Hf isotopes and 40Ar‐39Ar age‐dating.

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.

New Insights Into Hikurangi Subduction Inputs and Megathrust Host Rocks Spanning Along‐Margin Changes in Fault Slip Behavior

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The seismic behavior of subduction megathrusts varies spatially and is influenced by the properties of subducting plates, including their sedimentary cover. Characterizing these subduction inputs is essential for understanding the mechanisms behind fault slip variability.

Evidence for long-lived (>100 Myr) continental intraplate volcanism: Mongolia since the last ocean closure [PDF]

Since the closure of the Mongol-Okhotsk Ocean in the Mesozoic, Mongolia has been in an intraplate tectonic setting; the nearest plate boundary being ∼3,000 km to the east, at the active Pacific subduction front.

Low-velocity anomaly in the Coral Sea associated with subducting slabs and the Woodlark rift

Communications Earth & Environment
Classical plume models offer insights into intraplate volcanism and seamount chain formation by assuming a cylindrical upwelling of hot materials from the core-mantle boundary.

Generation of Channelized Mantle Flow Beyond the Rift Zone Accelerated by Thermal Heterogeneity and Rift Propagation

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Rifting is a tectonic process that leads to extensive magmatic activity, continental breakup, and the formation of new oceanic crust. The interplay between rifting and dynamic mantle flow driven by thermal heterogeneity in the mantle along the rift‐axis can influence magmatism and deformation beyond the rift zone.

Focused Mantle Upwelling Beneath the Southeastern Asian Basalt Province Revealed by Seismic Surface Wave Tomography

Geophysical Research Letters
Following the termination of seafloor spreading in the South China Sea (SCS) basin, abundant intraplate volcanism widely spreads in the Indochina block, SCS basin, and Leiqiong area, forming the Southeastern Asian Basalt Province (SABP).

Asthenospheric flow through the Izanagi-Pacific slab window and its influence on dynamic topography and intraplate volcanism in East Asia

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The tectonics of East Asia are notoriously complex. Consisting of an intricate patchwork of microplates and accreted terranes, even the Cenozoic tectonic history of the region remains controversial, and many differing reconstructions have been proposed ...

Geochemical and Isotopic Constraints on Long‐Lived Source Enrichment and Mantle Evolution in Paleoproterozoic Cratonic Lamprophyres

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The cratonic lithospheric mantle records complex metasomatic processes and is frequently tapped by alkaline magmatism, offering a unique opportunity to trace the progressive evolution of the mantle. In the present contribution, we investigate a newly identified calc‐alkaline lamprophyre field from the Neoarchean Jonnagiri Schist Belt, Eastern ...
