Reply to 'Unclear causes for subduction'

open access: yes, 2016
Arculus et al. reply — Keenan and Encarnación suggest that the absence of pre-subduction inception basement in the drill core data taken from site U1438 raises ambiguity in our conclusion of spontaneous subduction initiation in the Izu–Bonin ...

Kinematic subduction rate of Labrador Sea Water from an eddy-permitting numerical model

open access: yes, 2020
We use an eddy-permitting, 1/12° regional configuration of the Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean (NEMO) model to examine water mass subduction rates in the Labrador Sea for the 2002–2013 period. An instantaneous kinematic subduction approach is

The Role of Slab Remnants in Modulating Free Subduction Dynamics: A 3‐D Spherical Numerical Study

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Seismic 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

Neogene plate tectonic reconstructions and geodynamics of North Island sedimentary basins: Implications for the petroleum systems

open access: yes, 2006
Although the modern Australia-Pacific plate boundary through New Zealand is relatively straight, there have been significant changes in its geometry during the Neogene. Within the North Island sector there has been a fundamental transition from an Alpine

Creep of Talc at Subduction Zone Conditions: Implications for Slow Slip and Strength of the Lithosphere

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Talc 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

RV Sonne Cruise 200, 11 Jan-11 Mar 2009. Jakarta - Jakarta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
All plate boundaries are divided into segments - pieces of fault that are distinct from oneanother, either separated by gaps or with different orientations.

Mantle Flow and Anisotropy in Subduction Zones: Modeling and Clustering of Olivine Textures

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The mantle near Earth's subduction zones endures intense deformation that generates anisotropic rock textures. These textures can be observed seismically and modeled geodynamically, but the complexity of this deformation makes analyses of these textures ...

Changing Sources of Magma Generation Beneath Intra-Oceanic Islands Arcs: An Insight From the Juvenile Kohistan Island Arc, Pakistan Himalaya

open access: yes, 2006
The Kohistan arc, situated in the Pakistan Himalaya, is a Cretaceous intraoceanic island arc which was initiated during the northward movement of the Indian Plate. The arc was sutured to Asia at ca. 100 Ma.
