The thermal evolution of subduction zone lithosphere: Evidence from the chemical development of Mt. Ruapehu and surrounding vents, New Zealand. [PDF]

, 2010
Mt. Ruapehu is an andesite volcano located at the southwest termination of the Taupo Volcanic Zone (TVZ) in the North Island of New Zealand where the Pacific Plate subducts beneath the Australian Plate.

A review of the seismotectonics of the Makran Subduction Zone as a baseline for Tsunami Hazard Assessments

Geoscience Letters, 2019
The Makran Accretionary Wedge (900 km across) is a consequence of northward subduction of the oceanic part of the Arabian Plate beneath the Lut and Afghan blocks in the northwestern Indian Ocean.

Evolving Subduction Zone Thermal Structure Drives Extensive Forearc Mantle Wedge Hydration

AGU Advances
Hydration of the subduction zone forearc mantle wedge influences the downdip distribution of seismicity, the availability of fluids for arc magmatism, and Earth's long term water cycle.

Earthquake Relocation Using Double Difference Method for 2D Modelling of Subducting Slab and Back Arc Thrust in West Nusa Tenggara

Jurnal Penelitian Fisika dan Aplikasinya, 2018
West Nusa Tenggara is classified into earthquake prone zone as it is located between subduction and back arc thrust earthquake sources. Accurate hypocenter determination in this area is necessary for strong motion calculation and earthquake source zone ...

Terrane Collision‐Induced Subduction Initiation: Mode Selection and Implications for Western Pacific Subduction System

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
In the regime of plate tectonics, the subduction of an oceanic plate generally terminates with the collision and accretion of continental terranes. Then, a new subduction zone may form in the neighboring oceanic plates, which is defined as the terrane ...

Subduction Zone [PDF]

, 2014
Subduction Zone is a book of meditations on empire -- the desires and agendas of empire, and empire's detritus. From a sweeping panorama of imperial landscapes both classical and modern, it carries us into the troubled natural beauty of the world.

Weak asthenosphere of Sumatran backarc revealed by long postseismic geodetic records

Communications Earth & Environment
The viscosity of Earth’s asthenosphere regulates plate motion and surface deformation. Assessing asthenosphere rheology in subduction-zone backarcs is as crucial as in forearc and arc regions for understanding subduction dynamics.
