Lithosphere‐Asthenosphere Interactions Across the Indo‐Burma Subduction Zone From Sp Receiver Functions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The Cenozoic convergence between the Indian and Asian plates has driven large‐scale mantle convection that interacts with both plates. Understanding this convergence benefits from clear imaging of the lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB).

Evolution of the boundary between the Philippine Sea Plate and Australia: palaeomagnetic evidence from eastern Indonesia

, 1995
The boundary between the Philippine Sea and Australian plates is the left-lateral Sorong Fault system of eastern Indonesia. Until recently, modelling this boundary for the period before about 5 Ma was difficult; the Tertiary motion of the Philippine Sea ...

Three-dimensional shear wave structure beneath the Philippine Sea from land and ocean bottom broadband seismograms [PDF]

, 2006
[1] We obtained three-dimensional (3-D) shear wave speed structure beneath the Philippine Sea and the surrounding region from seismograms recorded by land-based and long-term broadband ocean bottom seismographic stations.

Chemical Geodynamics of Granitoid Magmatism During a Pacific‐Philippine Sea Plate Transition in Southwest Japan

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Granitoid magmatism along the western Pacific margin records interactions between subduction dynamics and crust–mantle processes; however, the links between plate reorganization and magma‐source evolution remain debated.

Seismic Evidence for Possible Slab Melting from Strong Scattering Waves

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2011
Slab melting in young and hot subduction zones has been studied using geochemical observations and thermal modelling, but there are few data from seismic studies to confirm slab melting.

Geology, geochemistry and U-Pb SHRIMP age of the Tacloban Ophiolite Complex, Leyte Island (Central Philippines): Implications for the existence and extent of the proto-Philippine Sea Plate

, 2005
The oceanic basement of the Central Philippines is exposed in ophiolitic massifs the age and origin of which remain debated. The Tacloban Ophiolite Complex (TOC) outcrops as a NW-SE trending massif in the northeastern portion of Leyte Island, Central ...

Opening and Closure of the Sulu Sea: Revealed by Its Peripheral Subduction and Collision Processes

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The Sulu Sea is a small marginal sea in the western Pacific, but it is a very complex and tectonically active region, situated amidst the convergence of the Eurasian, Pacific, and India-Australian plates.

A critical reappraisal of paleomagnetic evidence for Philippine Sea Plate rotation [PDF]

, 2023
The kinematic history of the Philippine Sea Plate (PSP) is crucial for interpreting its geological record related to subduction initiation processes and the paleogeography of the junction between the Paleo-Pacific and Tethyan oceanic realms.

High-precision 1′×1′ bathymetric model of Philippine Sea inversed from marine gravity anomalies

, 2023
The Philippine Sea, located at the edge of the Northwest Pacific Ocean, possesses complex seabed topography. Developing a high-precision bathymetric model for this region is of paramount importance as it provides fundamental geoinformation essential for ...

Determination of subducted Philippine Sea Plate in the Nansei islands deduced from hypocenter data [PDF]

We calculated the contour of depth-distribution of hypocenters in the Nansei islands, southwest of Japan. The contours correspond to the subducted Philippine Sea plate.
