Geochemical fingerprinting of continental and oceanic basalts: A machine learning approach
Basalts are ubiquitous, mantle-derived mafic rocks found within all tectonic settings.
Studying the chemical composition of basalts has proven to be an effective way to …

[PDF][PDF] Origin of back‐arc basin magmas: Trace element and isotope perspectives
The compositions of back-arc basin basalts (BABB) can usefully be viewed as products of

The Troodos ophiolitic complex probably formed in a subduction initiation, slab edge setting
JA Pearce, PT Robinson - Gondwana Research, 2010 - Elsevier
Miyashiro (1973) famously initiated a debate on the tectonic setting of ophiolite complexes
by proposing that 'the Troodos ophiolitic complex was probably formed in an island arc'. This …

A new driving mechanism for backarc extension and backarc shortening through slab sinking induced toroidal and poloidal mantle flow: Results from dynamic …
We present numerical subduction models to investigate overriding plate deformation at
subduction zones. All models show forearc shortening, resulting predominantly from shear …
