Intermittent Plate Tectonics?

Science, 2008
Although it is commonly assumed that subduction has operated continuously on Earth without interruption, subduction zones are routinely terminated by ocean closure and supercontinent assembly. Under certain circumstances, this could lead to a dramatic loss of subduction, globally.

Polarized Plate Tectonics

2015
The mechanisms driving plate motion and the Earth's geodynamics are still not entirely clarified. Lithospheric volumes recycled at subduction zones or emerging at rift zones testify mantle convection. The cooling of the planet and the related density gradients are invoked to explain mantle convection either driven from the hot interior or from the ...

Plate Tectonics

Science, 1972
Plate tectonics as a theory distinct from, yet embracing, continental drift and sea floor spreading was formulated by Wilson [1965] when he described a continuous network of ridges, transforms, and subduction zones bounding large rigid plates. Wilson explicitly discussed many of the consequences of the relative motion of torsionally rigid plates such ...

Accelerated Plate Tectonics

Science, 1975
The concept of a stressed elastic lithospheric plate riding on a viscous asthenosphere is used to calculate the recurrence interval of great earthquakes at convergent plate boundaries, the separation of decoupling and lithospheric earthquakes, and the migration pattern of large earthquakes along an arc.
