Slab interactions in 3-D subduction settings: The Philippine Sea Plate region

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters, 2018
The importance of slab–slab interactions is manifested in the kinematics and geometry of the Philippine Sea Plate and western Pacific subduction zones, and such interactions offer a dynamic basis for the first-order observations in this complex ...

Split Philippine Sea plate beneath Japan [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2010
The shape of the Philippine Sea Plate subducting beneath western Japan is a crucial factor in understanding earthquakes and volcanic activity. We propose that the subducted plate was split along an extinct ridge due to an abrupt change of subduction direction, followed by elastic deformation of the plate and an accumulation of stress near the ridge ...

Philippine Sea and East Asian plate tectonics since 52 Ma constrained by new subducted slab reconstruction methods [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2016
We reconstructed Philippine Sea and East Asian plate tectonics since 52 Ma from 28 slabs mapped in 3-D from global tomography, with a subducted area of ~25% of present-day global oceanic lithosphere.
