Late Palaeogene emplacement and late Neogene-Quaternary exhumation of the Kuril island-arc root (Kunashir island) constrained by multi-method thermochronometry [PDF]
The Kuril islands constitute a volcanic island arc-trench system, stretching from eastern Hokkaido (Japan) to Kamchatka (Russia) along the northwestern Pacific subduction system.

Changing Sources of Magma Generation Beneath Intra-Oceanic Islands Arcs: An Insight From the Juvenile Kohistan Island Arc, Pakistan Himalaya [PDF]
The Kohistan arc, situated in the Pakistan Himalaya, is a Cretaceous intraoceanic island arc which was initiated during the northward movement of the Indian Plate. The arc was sutured to Asia at ca. 100 Ma.

Peculiarities of Subduction in the Junction of the Kuril–Kamchatka and Aleutian Island Arcs [PDF]
The peculiarities of the junction between the Kuril–Kamchatka and Aleutian island arcs are studied using different techniques and experimental data. The models of medium structure that were obtained by using surface wave tomography and studies of S-wave anisotropy in the asthenosphere beneath the subduction plate detected an ascending asthenospheric ...

Active faulting in Sredinny Range, Kamchatka Peninsula
The paper presents the results of remote sensing interpretation of active faults of the Sredinny Range of Kamchatka. The use of remote sensing data allowed us to identify fault scarps and magma-conducting fractures, expressed in the topography by chains ...

Provenance history of a Late Triassic-Jurassic Gondwana margin forearc basin, Murihiku Terrane, North Island, New Zealand: petrographic and geochemical constraints [PDF]
The Murihiku Terrane in the North Island was a forearc basin adjacent to a volcanic arc along the eastern margin of Gondwana during the Mesozoic. The rocks that infill the basin are mainly volcaniclastic sandstones and mudstones, often turbiditic, with ...

New data on composition of intrusive rocks from Shikotan island (Lesser Kuril Chain)
The article presents new petrologic and geochemical data on gabbroids from Shikotan Island (Lesser Kuril Chain). The results were compared with co-magmatic Late Cretaceous-Paleocene volcanics from the Zelenov Formation, as well as with the rocks from the
