Joint Geodynamic‐Geophysical Inversion Suggests Passive Subduction and Accretion of the Ontong Java Plateau

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
In this study, we for the first time applied a joint geodynamic‐geophysical inversion approach to oceanic plateau subduction models, and compared the subduction style and corresponding topography and Bouguer gravity of two representative subduction ...

Caribbean Plate margin evolution: constraints and current problems

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2006
Oceanic crust was generated at multiple spreading centres during the Jurassic and Early Cretaceous, forming a “proto-Caribbean” oceanic domain. During the Cretaceous, part of that crustal domain thickened into an oceanic plateau, of petrologic Mid-Ocean ...

The Effect of the Kerguelen Plateau on the Ocean Circulation

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2016
AbstractThe Kerguelen Plateau is a major topographic feature in the Southern Ocean. Located in the Indian sector and spanning nearly 2000 km in the meridional direction from the polar to the subantarctic region, it deflects the eastward-flowing Antarctic Circumpolar Current and influences the physical circulation and biogeochemistry of the Southern ...

Structural architecture of oceanic plateau subduction offshore Eastern Java and the potential implications for geohazards [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The region offshore Eastern Java represents one of the few places where the early stage of oceanic plateau subduction is occurring. We study the little investigated Roo Rise oceanic plateau on the Indian plate, subducting beneath Eurasia. The presence of

Ferritin Iron Mineralisation: Route of Fe3+ Transfer From the Ferroxidase Centre to the Inner Cavity of Human H‐Chain Ferritin

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Proposed mechanism for Fe3+ transport from the FoC (sites 1 and 2) of human H‐chain ferritin following oxidation of the di‐Fe2+ form. Glu61, aided by the flexibility of its sidechain, plays a key role in coordinating Fe3+ at three sites (3, 4 and 5) that mark out the transit route.

Links between temperature changes and oceanic-plateau emplacement during the Cenomanian–Turonian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE 2) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The Cenomanian–Turonian boundary interval (~94 Ma) was marked by a period of climatic turbulence, and featured the widespread expansion of strongly oxygen-depleted conditions across a large part of the global ocean; collectively these environmental ...

Late Jurassic Oceanic Crust and Upper Cretaceous Caribbean Plateau Picritic Basalts Exposed in the Duarte Igneous Complex, Hispaniola [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
International audienceFour distinct rock units have been recognized near El Aguacate, in the Janico–Juncalito–La Vega area of the Duarte complex (Dominican Republic): (1) serpentinites crosscut by numerous diabasic dikes, (2) basalts interbedded with ...

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.

Pre-subduction of the Caroline Plateau intensifies lithospheric hydration in the southern Mariana Trench

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The subduction of oceanic plateaus significantly reshapes subduction systems, yet its impact on lithospheric hydration prior to subduction is not well understood. Here we investigate these processes as the Caroline Plateau approaches the southern Mariana

Plume versus plate origin for the Shatsky Rise oceanic plateau (NW Pacific): Insights from Nd, Pb and Hf isotopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Shatsky Rise, an early Cretaceous igneous oceanic plateau in the NWPacific, comprises characteristics that could be attributed to either formation by shallow, plate tectonic-controlled processes or to an origin by a mantle plume(head).
