A hidden carbon cycle exists inside Earth. Every year, megatons of carbon disappear into
subduction zones, affecting atmospheric carbon dioxide and oxygen over Earth's history …

Tectonic or subduction erosion refers to the removal of upper-plate material from the forearc
at convergent margins. Subduction erosion has been suggested to represent a major …

Forearc basins are one of the fundamental sedimentary basins, and they preserve various
geological phenomena arising from dynamic interactions between subducting and …

Earthquakes occur by overcoming fault friction; therefore, quantifying fault resistance is
central to earthquake physics. Values for both static and dynamic friction are required, and …

The evolution of relict fore-arc basins and their kinematic relationships with sedimentation is
often less well understood due their fragmentation or amalgamation of individual basins and …

New plate reconstructions constrain the tectonic evolution of the subducting Cocos and
Nazca plates across the southern Central American subduction zone from late Miocene to …

We applied automated velocity analysis to a 3D seismic data volume to obtain a high-
resolution seismic velocity model that we used to investigate the influence of fluid behavior …

The link between plate tectonics and the evolution of active margins is still an ongoing task
to challenge since the acceptance of plate tectonic paradigm. This paper aims at …

We study the dynamically induced flexural topography in subduction numerical mechanical
models. We focus on the topographic changes at the overriding plate (OP) surface induced …

We present numerical models to study how changes in the process of subduction may
explain the observed Quaternary uplift of the Andean forearc region. Indeed, most segments …
