Insight into the evolution of Philippine Sea‐South China Sea (SCS) plate motions helps reveal the driving mechanisms of the long‐term tectonic complexity in Southeast Asia. Here, based on the integration of the most recent geological and seismic data, we

Origin and Age of Magmatism in the Northern Philippine Sea Basins
A Robust tectonic reconstruction of the Philippine Sea Plate around ∼52 Ma is a prerequisite in understanding the process of subduction initiation and establishment of the Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana arc.

Identification and evolution of tectonic units in the Philippine Sea Plate
The Philippine Sea Plate is located at the convergence zone of the Eurasian Plate, the Pacific Plate, and the Indo-Australian Plate. This paper divides the Philippine Sea Plate into two second-order tectonic units and eight third-order tectonic units by ...

Gravity inversion constrained by OBS receiver function reveals crustal structure in Ryukyu Trench
The Ryukyu Trench is located in the northern Philippine Sea. The subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate to the Eurasia Plate along the Ryukyu Trench in the NNW direction leads to extremely complex tectonic processes such as subduction, collision ...

Stress loading and the occurrence of normal-type earthquakes under Boso Peninsula, Japan
Boso Peninsula, Japan, was formed by the interaction of the Philippine Sea, Eurasian and Pacific plates around the trench–trench–trench Boso triple junction.

Tectonic reconstruction models of Southeast Asia all invoke in the early Cenozoic the collision of Mesozoic oceanic plates, which have been fragmented, consumed along subduction zones or emplaced onto the overriding plate. However, with marked variations

Slab Pull Drives IBM Trench Advance Despite the Weakened Philippine Sea Plate
The mechanism behind the significant Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana (IBM) trench advance is still controversial. We conduct slab subduction numerical models that reproduce the spatio‐temporal tectonic evolution of the Philippine Sea region to investigate whether slab

Receiver Function Imaging of the Crustal Structure Beneath Northern Taiwan Using Dense Linear Arrays
In order to realize the crustal structure in Taiwan, the receiver function method was used to analyze the teleseismic waveforms recorded by two orthogonal broadband linear arrays deployed in northern Taiwan in the east–west and south–north directions by ...

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
