Subduction initiation at the corner of small oceanic basin
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 In 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. To investigate the influence of a triangular indenter on subduction initiation, we performed a series of three-dimensional numerical simulations with varying indenter angles and ...

Patterns of Late Cenozoic exhumation deduced from apatite and zircon U-He ages from Fiordland, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2005 New apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He ages from the Fiordland region of New Zealand's South Island expand on earlier results and provide new constraints on patterns of Late Cenozoic exhumation and cooling across this region.

Anomalous Subduction Initiation: Young Under Old Oceanic Lithosphere
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 When subduction initiates along a transform fault, it is often interpreted that the older and therefore denser oceanic lithosphere should evolve into the downgoing plate.

Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]
, 2011 West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.

Recognizing detachment-mode seafloor spreading in the deep geological past [PDF]
, 2013 Large-offset oceanic detachment faults are a characteristic of slow- and ultraslow-spreading ridges, leading to the formation of oceanic core complexes (OCCs) that expose upper mantle and lower crustal rocks on the seafloor.
