Across the entire mantle we interpret 94 positive seismic wave-speed anomalies as
subducted lithosphere and associate these slabs with their geological record. We document …

Seismic travel-time tomography of the mantle under SE Asia reveals patterns of subduction-
related seismic P-wave velocity anomalies that are of great value in hel** to understand …

Abstract We reconstructed Philippine Sea and East Asian plate tectonics since 52 Ma from
28 slabs mapped in 3‐D from global tomography, with a subducted area of~ 25% of present …

To better understand the subsurface behavior of subducting slabs and their relation to the
tectonic evolution of the overriding plate, we conduct a full waveform inversion on a large …

Documenting the mass flux through convergent plate margins is important to the
understanding of petrogenesis in arc settings and to the origin of the continental crust, since …

To address the question of the initiation and mechanisms involved in the process of
subduction zone formation, we explored most of the available evidence for the subduction …

Statistical analysis of modern oceanic subduction zone parameters, such as the age of a
downgoing plate or the absolute plate motions, is performed in order to investigate which …

Tectonic activity in convergent plate boundaries commonly involves backward migration
(rollback) of narrow subducting slabs and segmentation of subduction zones through slab …

We present a new whole mantle P wave tomographic model GAP_P4. We used two data
groups; short‐period data of more than 10 million picked‐up onset times and long‐period …

Based on the marine magnetic anomalies identified in the Argo Abyssal Plain offshore
northwestern Australia, the conceptual continent of Argoland must have rifted off in the Late …
