Bathymetry of the Pacific plate and its implications for thermal evolution of lithosphere and mantle dynamics [PDF]

, 2015
A long-standing question in geodynamics is the cause of deviations of ocean depth or seafloor topography from the prediction of a cooling half-space model (HSC).

Orthopyroxene-enrichment in the lherzolite-websterite xenolith suite from Paleogene alkali basalts of the Poiana Ruscă Mountains (Romania)

Geologica Carpathica, 2015
In this paper we present the petrography and geochemistry of a recently collected lherzolite-websterite xenolith series and of clinopyroxene xenocrysts, hosted in Upper Cretaceous–Paleogene basanites of Poiana Ruscă (Romania), whose xenoliths show ...

Plume‐Induced Subduction Initiation: Single‐Slab or Multi‐Slab Subduction?

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Initiation of subduction following the impingement of a hot buoyant mantle plume is one of the few scenarios that allow breaking the lithosphere and recycling a stagnant lid without requiring any preexisting weak zones.

Lithospheric loading model for large impact basin where mantle plug presents [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Lithosphere is an outer rigid part of the terrestrial body, usually consisting of the crust and part of the mantle. Characterizing the physical properties of the lithosphere is critical in investigating its evolution. By modeling mass-related loads within the lithosphere, physical parameters such as the elastic thickness of the lithosphere can be ...

Geochemistry and tectonic development of Cenozoic magmatism in the Carpathian–Pannonian region [PDF]

, 2011
This review considers the magmatic processes in the Carpathian–Pannonian Region (CPR) from Early Miocene to Recent times, as well as the contemporaneous magmatism at its southern boundary in the Dinaride and Balkans regions.

The effects of the overriding plate thermal state on the slab dip in an ocean-continent subduction system [PDF]

Comptes Rendus Geoscience, Volume 343, pp. 323-330, 2011, 2011
To evaluate the effects of variations in the thermal state of the overriding plate on the slab dip in an ocean-continent subduction system, a 2-D finite element thermo-mechanical model was implemented. The lithosphere base was located at the depth of the 1600 K isotherm.

Temporal and spatial Taylor's law: Application to Japanese subnational mortality rates

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series A (Statistics in Society), Volume 185, Issue 4, Page 1979-2006, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Taylor's law is a widely observed empirical pattern that relates the variances to the means of population densities. We present four extensions of the classical Taylor's law (TL): (1) a cubic extension of the linear TL describes the mean–variance relationship of human mortality at subnational levels well; (2) in a time series, long‐run ...

Breaking Earth’s shell into a global plate network

Nature Communications, 2020
How Earth’s lithosphere first divided into tectonic plates remains uncertain. Here, the authors use 3D spherical shell models to demonstrate that anticipated warming of the early lithosphere should lead to thermal expansion and the initiation of a global
