Motion of the Philippine Sea plate consistent with the NUVEL-1A model [PDF]

Geophysical Journal International, 2002
Summary We determine Euler vectors for 12 plates, including the Philippine Sea plate (PH), relative to the fixed Pacific plate (PA) by inverting the earthquake slip vectors along the boundaries of the Philippine Sea plate, GPS observed velocities, and 1122 data from the NUVEL-1 and the NUVEL-1A global plate motion model, respectively.

Canonical Antibodies Adopt Distinct Binding Modes to Recognize Viral Glycan Shields

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Canonical Y‐shaped antibodies recognize viral glycan shields through adaptive Fab assembly states shaped by glycan organization and somatic hypermutation. Structural analyses ofbroadly neutralizing antibodies VRC35 and VRC36 across glycoproteins of HIV‐1, influenza, SARS‐CoV‐2, and Lassa viruses reveal distinct Fab assembly states, spanning monovalent,

Ages of ophiolitic rocks along plate suture in Taiwan orogen: Fate of the South China Sea from subduction to collision

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2020
Ophiolite-bearing belts mark convergent plate suture zones and are central in reconstructing plate configuration and structures of mountain belts. The active Taiwan mountain belt, product of ongoing convergence between the Eurasian and Philippine Sea ...

Subduction with arrested volcanism: Compressional regime in volcanic arc gap formation along east Mindanao, Philippines

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2020
The eastern portion of the Philippine island arc system, from the Bicol Peninsula through Leyte island to the Pacific Cordillera of east Mindanao, is the overriding plate underneath which the West Philippine Basin (part of the Philippine Sea Plate) and ...

The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

Origin of Philippine Sea Basins During Subduction Initiation in the Western Pacific

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Understanding the age and dynamics of the overriding plates allows an assessment of competing subduction initiation hypotheses. The Izu‐Bonin‐Mariana margin in the Western Pacific is a key example of initiation and hence it is important to constrain the ...

Free Phenolic Hydroxyl Groups Govern the Anticancer Activity of α‐Mangostin: A Structure–Activity Relationship Insight

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Free phenolic hydroxyl groups in the chemical structure of the natural xanthone α‐mangostin (MGT) contribute positively to achieving the anticancer profile against murine colon cancer, murine triple negative breast cancer, and human osteosarcoma cancer. ABSTRACT The α‐mangostin (MGT) is a natural xanthone obtained from the pericarp of mangosteen fruit (

Slab morphology and deformation beneath Izu-Bonin

Nature Communications, 2019
In the 1000 km long Izu-Bonin subduction zone to the south of Tokyo, the Pacific Plate descends beneath the Philippine Sea Plate. Here the authors use teleseismic double-difference tomography to image the complex morphology of the Izu-Bonin slab ...

Multiphase Tectonic Process With Slab Dynamics in the Northern East China Sea Shelf Basin

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Megasequence 1 characterised by Palaeocene extension and differential subsidence driven by the rollback of the subducting Izanagi Plate. Megasequence 2 records a kinematic reorganisation of the East Asian margin, transition from a rifting to a compressional regime.

Isolation of the South China Sea from the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre since the latest Miocene due to formation of the Luzon Strait

Scientific Reports, 2021
The North Pacific subtropical gyre (NPSG) plays a major role in present global ocean circulation. At times, the gyre has coursed through the South China Sea, but its role in the evolutionary development of that Sea remains uncertain.
