On the origin of the North Pacific arcs [PDF]

, 2004
We present a new hypothesis that relates global plate tectonics to the formation of marginal basins, island arcs, spreading ridges and arc-shaped mountain belts around the North Pacific Ocean.

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.

Tomographic image of crust and upper mantle off the Boso Peninsula using data from an ocean-bottom seismograph array

Earth, Planets and Space, 2017
We determined the three-dimensional structure of the crust and upper mantle off the Boso Peninsula, Japan, by analyzing seismograms recorded by ocean-bottom seismometers and land stations between 2011 and 2013. We employed seismic tomography to determine

Moment tensor inversion of the 2016 southeast offshore Mie earthquake in the Tonankai region using a three-dimensional velocity structure model: effects of the accretionary prism and subducting oceanic plate

Earth, Planets and Space, 2018
The southeast offshore Mie earthquake occurred on April 1, 2016 near the rupture area of the 1944 Tonankai earthquake, where seismicity around the interface of the Philippine Sea plate had been very low until this earthquake.

Mesozoic rock suites along western Philippines: Exposed proto-South China Sea fragments?

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2020
An ancient oceanic crustal leading edge east of mainland Asia, the proto-South China Sea crust, must have existed during the Mesozoic based on tectonic reconstructions that accounted for the presence of subducted slabs in the lower mantle and the exposed

Seismic Structure of the Upper Mantle Beneath Eastern Asia From Full Waveform Seismic Tomography

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018
To better understand the subsurface behavior of subducting slabs and their relation to the tectonic evolution of the overriding plate, we conduct a full waveform inversion on a large data set to determine a high‐resolution seismic model, FWEA18 (Full ...

Rotation of the Philippine Sea plate inferred from paleomagnetism of oriented cores taken with an ROV-based coring apparatus

Earth, Planets and Space, 2021
Reconstructing the history of Philippine Sea (PHS) plate motion is important for better understanding of the tectonics of the surrounding plates. It is generally considered that the PHS plate migrated northward since Eocene, but its rotation has not been

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 ...
