Back‐Arc Tectonics and Plate Reconstruction of the Philippine Sea‐South China Sea Region Since the Eocene [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
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

Identification and evolution of tectonic units in the Philippine Sea Plate

open access: yesChina Geology, 2022
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 ...

Basal reflector under the Philippine Sea Plate [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2012
To place constraints on the observability and properties of the lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB), we sought SH precursors to sS from earthquakes beneath the Philippine Sea Plate.

Origin and motion history of the Philippine Sea Plate

open access: yesTectonophysics, 1995
Abstract The Philippine Sea Plate is the one major plate whose Tertiary motion is poorly constrained and whose origin is problematical. Its southern boundary is the Sorong Fault system which is part of a major left-lateral fault system at the northern margin of the Australian plate.

Tectono-magmatic evolution of the Philippine Sea Plate: A review

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment, 2022
The West Pacific Margin incorporates 75% of global marginal basins/back-arc basins. These basins and their adjacent trenches and island arcs constitute a huge trench-arc-basin system created by the interactions among three tectonic plates (the Pacific ...

Cenozoic Plate interaction of the Australia and Philippine Sea Plates: “hit-and-run” tectonics

open access: yesTectonophysics, 2003
Abstract Recent studies in northwest New Guinea have shown the presence of at least two marginal basins of different age, both of which formed in back-arc settings. The older basin opened between the Middle Jurassic and Early Cretaceous, a remnant of which is now preserved as the New Guinea Ophiolite. Its obduction started at 40 Ma and it was finally

Configuration and structure of the Philippine Sea Plate off Boso, Japan: constraints on the shallow subduction kinematics, seismicity, and slow slip events [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2019
We applied tomographic inversion and receiver function analysis to seismic data from ocean-bottom seismometers and land-based stations to understand the structure and its relationship with slow slip events off Boso, Japan.

Intermingled fates of the South China Sea and Philippine Sea plate. [PDF]

open access: yesNatl Sci Rev, 2019
Recent studies have shown the extent and nature of the South China Sea (SCS) at the end of spreading by unfolding (i.e. structurally restoring) the Manila slab, which is the subducted part of the SCS, and by identifying the nature of the crust-lithosphere (oceanic or thinned continental) from mid-slab P-wave velocity perturbations (dVp) [1,2].

Intraplate stresses and plate‐driving forces in the Philippine Sea Plate [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1999
We use a spherical shell elastic finite element analysis to characterize intraplate stresses and plate‐driving forces in the Philippine Sea Plate. Our finite element mesh is comprised of 489 nodes and 914 elements, and provide a spatial resolution of about 1°.

Azimuthal Variation in the Surface Wave Velocity of the Philippine Sea Plate

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
A study of the azimuthal variation in the surface wave fundamental-mode phase velocity is performed for the Philippine Sea Plate (PSP). This azimuthal variation has been anisotropically inverted for the PSP to determine the isotropic and anisotropic ...
