Numerical analysis of deformation in the upper part of subduction zones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The stresses and deformation in an accretionary prism, and the crystalline basement behind and beneath it, have been modelled using finite element analysis, assuming a visco-elastic Maxwell rheology for the rocks involved.

Late Pleistocene Volcanic Rocks From Tengchong Volcanic Field at SE Tibetan Plateau: Constraints on Petrogenesis and Mantle and Crustal Processes

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Early zircon saturation and crystallisation occur in mafic (52–54 wt.% SiO2) lavas at Tengchong volcanic field. These early formed zircons with high δ18O (6.6‰–7.9‰) indicates mantle enrichment by subducted supracrustal materials. ABSTRACT Late Pleistocene (< 0.2 Ma) mafic and evolved volcanic rocks occur in northern Tengchong Volcanic Field, SE ...

Contrasting magma chemistry in the Candelaria IOCG district caused by changing tectonic regimes

open access: yesScientific Reports
Iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) deposits are a vital source of copper and critical elements for emerging clean technologies. Andean-type IOCG deposits form in continental arcs undergoing extension, and they have a temporal relationship with magmatism ...

Subduction Zones: A Short Review

open access: yes, 2023
Subduction zones are locations on Earth where the oceanic material of one tectonic plate dives below the material (oceanic or continental) of another tectonic plate into the mantle. They are the most complex and dramatic tectonic features on our home planet and have been the subject of intense investigations, some of which pre-date the advent of the ...

A Reassessment of Petrochemistry of ~1.2 Ga Tonalitic Rocks of the Northern Tugela Terrane, Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa: Further Constraints on the Evolution of This Belt

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Our petrochemical studies on ~1.2 Ga granitoids of the Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa, do not suggest any property similar to Phanerozoic‐style subduction‐related granitoids. Plot of Kotongweni Tonalite in Y versus Sr diagram (after Moyen 2011), note that most samples have Sr/Y < 50.

Petrology of Subducted Slabs

open access: yesAnnual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2002
▪ Abstract  The subducted lithosphere is composed of a complex pattern of chemical systems that undergo continuous and discontinuous phase transformation, through pressure and temperature variations. Volatile recycling plays a major geodynamic role in triggering mass transfer, melting, and volcanism.

Geochemistry and tectonic development of Cenozoic magmatism in the Carpathian–Pannonian region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This review considers the magmatic processes in the Carpathian–Pannonian Region (CPR) from Early Miocene to Recent times, as well as the contemporaneous magmatism at its southern boundary in the Dinaride and Balkans regions.

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

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

Tectono‐Sedimentary Evolution of the Neogene İnegöl Basin (NW Anatolia): Constraints on Transtensional Basin Development at the Junction of the Western Anatolian Extensional Province and the North Anatolian Fault Zone

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
The study outlines the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the İnegöl Basin in north‐western Anatolia. Basin formation was controlled by interacting extensional and strike‐slip fault systems linked to uplift of the Uludağ Massif. Terrestrial sedimentation from the Miocene to Pleistocene is reconstructed using abundant fossil mammal assemblages that ...
