Is the Eurasian Plate or the Pacific Plate getting subducted? What type of plate is the Indo-Australian Plate? What type of plate boundary does the Indo-Australian Plate have? Is the Eurasian Plate coming apart? Is the Cocos Plate subducting under the Carribbean Plate?
The subduction of the Paleo-Pacific Plate played an important role in the regional evolution of the eastern margin of the Eurasian continent, but the timing and extent of this event remain ambiguous. To address these issues, we examine the geochronology and geochemistry of Early Jurassic intrusive...

The widespread occurrence of late Early Cretaceous calc-alkaline igneous rocks, I-type granites, and adakitic rocks suggests low-angle subduction of the Paleo-Pacific slab beneath Eurasian continent at this time. The eastward narrowing of the distribution of igneous rocks from the Late Cretaceous to...
Similarly, potamidids and batillariids were among the most abundant and widespread molluscs in the epicontinental Paratethys Sea. This sea developed around the Eocene/Oligocene boundary when it became geodynamically separated from the Western Tethys (Rögl, 1998; Popov et al., 2004; Sachsenhofer...
jinshan region and the Middle Jurassic and Early Cretaceous matrices in the Raohe region, we propose that the NAC may record the Late Permian–Triassic, Jurassic and Early Cretaceous oceanic accretion events, representing the westward subduction and accretion process of the Paleo–Pacific Ocean Plate...
What type of plate boundary occurs between the African Plate and the Arabian Plate? Are tectonic plates part of the lithosphere? Is the Pacific Plate a divergent or convergent? Is the Pacific Plate convergent or divergent? Which tectonic plate is directly south of the African plate? How old is...
