Seamount Subduction and Earthquakes [PDF]
Oceanography, 2010 Seamounts are ubiquitous features of the seafloor that form part of the fabric of oceanic crust. When a seamount enters a subduction zone, it has a major affect on forearc morphology, the uplift history of the island arc, and the structure of the ...

Siberian flood basalt magmatism and Mongolia-Okhotsk slab dehydration [PDF]
, 2008 Experimental data combined with numerical calculations suggest that fast subducting slabs are cold enough to carry into the deep mantle a significant portion of the water in antigorite, which transforms with increasing depth to phase A and then to phase ...

Subduction Initiation at the Corner of Small Oceanic Basins
Geophysical Research LettersIn Southeast Asia, emerging subduction zones often appear to begin at the corners of small oceanic basins, which have a triangular‐indenter continent–ocean boundary geometry.

Tomographic image of the crust and uppermost mantle of the Ionian and Aegean regions
Annals of Geophysics, 1997 We present a tomographic view of the crust and uppermost mantle beneath the Central Mediterranean area obtained from P-wave arrival times of regional earthquakes selected from the ISC bulletin.

Plume‐Driven Subduction Termination in 3‐D Mantle Convection Models
Geochemistry, Geophysics, GeosystemsThe effect of mantle plumes is secondary to that of subducting slabs for modern plate tectonics when considering plate driving forces. However, the impact of plumes on tectonics and planetary surface evolution may nonetheless have been significant.

The Role of Slab Remnants in Modulating Free Subduction Dynamics: A 3‐D Spherical Numerical Study
Geochemistry, Geophysics, GeosystemsSeismic tomography of Earth's mantle images abundant slab remnants, often located in close proximity to active subduction systems. The impact of such remnants on the dynamics of subduction remains underexplored. Here, we use simulations of multi‐material

Geophysical Research LettersTalc can strongly influence the rheological properties of the subduction interface. Despite geologic evidence for talc at the interface, and proposed links between its rheology and slow slip events, few experiments have been conducted on talc at relevant
