Extending full-plate tectonic models into deep time: Linking the Neoproterozoic and the Phanerozoic
Recent progress in plate tectonic reconstructions has seen models move beyond the
classical idea of continental drift by attempting to reconstruct the full evolving configuration of …

A transdisciplinary and community-driven database to unravel subduction zone initiation
Subduction zones are pivotal for the recycling of Earth's outer layer into its interior. However,
the conditions under which new subduction zones initiate are enigmatic. Here, we …

Northwest Pacific-Izanagi plate tectonics since Cretaceous times from western Pacific mantle structure
Abstract Northwest Pacific-Izanagi subduction histories along Eurasia are poorly
constrained due to extensive subduction, which partially consumed the western Pacific plate …

Subduction initiation triggered by collision: A review based on examples and models
G Yang - Earth-Science Reviews, 2022 - Elsevier
Subduction initiation is one of the main unsolved issues in plate tectonics theory with
different proposed mechanisms. In the arc (plateau, terrane)-continent collision models, a …
