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

The secret to starting subduction is ... subduction
, 2020 Caroline Eakin, ANU The Earth's biggest earthquakes and most explosive volcanoes occur at subduction zones" where a tectonic plate (the seafloor itself) sinks bank into the Earth's interior. We've been able to compile 100 million years of existing evidence for Subduction Zone Initiation (SZI).

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Platinum-group elements (PGE) and gold are a promising tool to assess the processes of mantle melting beneath the subduction zones. However, fractionation processes in magmas inevitably overwrite the initial metal budgets of magmas, making constraints on

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

Subduction Zones: A Short Review
, 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 ...

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

Dynamic evolution of changbaishan volcanism in Northeast China illuminated by machine learning
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Previous studies propose that there is a mantle upwelling that generated the Cenozoic basalts in Changbaishan. However, the dominant source and mechanism of the mantle upwelling remains highly debated.

Radiogenic isotopes document the start of subduction in the Western Pacific
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2019 Subduction initiation is one of the least understood aspects of plate tectonics. In an effort to obtain the first in situ magmatic record of subduction initiation, the International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 352 drilled at four sites in the ...
