Identification and evolution of tectonic units in the Philippine Sea Plate
China Geology, 2022 The Philippine Sea Plate is located at the convergence zone of the Eurasian Plate, the Pacific Plate, and the Indo-Australian Plate. This paper divides the Philippine Sea Plate into two second-order tectonic units and eight third-order tectonic units by ...

Tectonic Evolution of the Terrestrial Planets [PDF]
Science, 1981 The style and evolution of tectonics on the terrestrial planets differ substantially. The style is related to the thickness of the lithosphere and to whether the lithosphere is divided into distinct, mobile plates that can be recycled into the mantle, as on Earth, or is a single spherical shell, as on the moon, Mars, and Mercury.

Accretionary Tectonics of the North American Cordillera [PDF]
, 1983 Continental geology stands on the threshold of a change that is likely to be as fundamental as plate-tectonic theory was for marine geology. Ongoing seismic-reflection investigations into the deep crustal structure of North America are verifying that ...

Bransfield Basin Tectonic Evolution
, 2006 6 pages, 5 figures Bransfield Basin is located at the Pacific margin of the Antarctic Peninsula and constitutes an incipient oceanic back-arc basin. This basin developed as a consequence of the separation of the South Shetland Block from the Antarctic Peninsula.

Sedimentation of the Lower Cretaceous Xiagou formation and Its Response to Regional Tectonics in the Qingxi Sag, Jiuquan Basin, NW China [PDF]
, 2014 Under the constraint of an isochronous sequence stratigraphic framework, sediment infill of the Xiagou Formation reflects the overall control of dynamic tectonic movements and episodic sedimentations in the Qingxi Sag.

Constraining the long-term evolution of the slip rate for a major extensional fault system in the central Aegean, Greece, using thermochronology [PDF]
, 2006 The brittle/ductile transition is a major rheologic boundary in the crust yet little is known about how or if rates of tectonic processes are influenced by this boundary.
