Asian dust input in the western Philippine Sea: Evidence from radiogenic Sr and Nd isotopes [PDF]
The radiogenic strontium (Sr) and neodymium (Nd) isotope compositions of the detrital fraction of surface and subsurface sediments have been determined to trace sediment provenance and contributions from Asian dust off the east coast of Luzon Islands in ...

Right-lateral shear along the Northwest Pacific Margin and the India-Eurasia Collision [PDF]
International audienceRight-lateral shear along the eastern margin of Asia, from the Eocene to the Present has led to the opening of pull-apart basins, intracontinental such as the Bohai basin, or oceanic such as the Japan Sea.
