Reviewing subduction initiation and the origin of plate tectonics: What do we learn from present-day Earth?

Earth and Planetary Physics, 2021
The theory of plate tectonics came together in the 1960s, achieving wide acceptance after 1968. Since then it has been the most successful framework for investigations of Earth’s evolution. Subduction of the oceanic lithosphere, as the engine that drives

Nature of Paleozoic Basement of the Catalan Coastal Ranges (Spain) and Tectonic Setting of the Priorat DOQ Wine Terroir: Evidence from Volcanic and Sedimentary Rocks

Geosciences, 2023
The Paleozoic volcano-sedimentary rocks within the structural basement of the horst-and-graben system of the Catalan Coastal Ranges (CCR) are composed of black shale, volcaniclastic sediments, lava flows, sills and lithocrystalloclastic tuffs.

Microscopic Pore Structures and Their Controlling Factors of the Lower Carboniferous Luzhai Shale in Guizhong Depression, China

Geofluids, 2023
Microscopic pore structures are of great significance in evaluating shale gas reservoirs and understanding the occurrence state of shale gas. Integrating geochemical analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), low-temperature N2 adsorption (LTNA), mercury ...

Archean eclogite-facies oceanic crust indicates modern-style plate tectonics

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022
Significance The onset time of plate tectonics is highly debated in the Earth sciences. A key indicator of modern-style plate tectonics, with deep subduction of oceanic plates, is the presence of eclogite (oceanic crust metamorphosed at high-pressure and

Geochemical characteristics and provenance of the detrital sediments in the junction area of Yinggehai and Qiongdongnan basins, South China Sea

Scientific Reports, 2023
Together, the Yinggehai and Qiongdongnan basins have received a large amount of terrigenous sediments, but the provenance evolution of Cenozoic sediments in the two basins remains disputable.
