We compiled the most relevant data acquired throughout the Philippine Sea Plate (PSP)
from the early expeditions to the most recent. We also analyzed the various explanatory …

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 …

Abstract The proto-Philippine Sea Plate (pPSP) has been proposed by several authors to
account for the origin of the Mesozoic supra-subduction ophiolites along the Philippine …

We develop a general theory for interferometry by correlation that (i) properly accounts for
heterogeneously distributed sources of continuous or transient nature,(ii) fully incorporates …

We present an extensive parametric exploration of the feasibility of “spontaneous”
subduction initiation, ie, lithospheric gravitational collapse without any external forcing, at a …

Abstract The Chimei Canyon is a large, uplifting wedge‐top submarine canyon offshore
eastern Taiwan that has delivered sediment since~ 1–2 Ma from the rapidly eroding Taiwan …

The tectonic history of the Philippine Sea plate is an essential piece in understanding the
tectonic evolution of Southeast Asia, but it is still unclear and controversial. We present the …

Recent studies have shown the extent and nature of the South China Sea (SCS) at the end
of spreading by unfolding (ie structurally restoring) the Manila slab, which is the subducted …

We modeled the velocity structure of the Huatung Basin and Gagua Ridge using offshore
wide‐angle seismic data along four∼ E‐W transects. These transects are accompanied by …

The seismicity, deformation rates and associated erosion in the Taiwan region clearly
demonstrate that plate tectonic and orogenic activities are at a high level. Major geologic …
