The paleogeography of the eastern margin of Asia, near Japan, for the past 250 Ma has been reconstructed on the basis of the relative motions between the oceanic plates and the Eurasian plate (Engebretson et al., 1982) and on-land geology. The relationships between the plate kinematics and ...
Convergence of continental fragments began in the Late Jurassic by subduction of oceanic crust, but upon complete disappearance of oceanic crust, convergence continued with subduction of small(?) amounts of lower continental crust. During continent—continent convergence, the upper 10–15 km of the ...
Concerns regarding the effect of global warming brought up the issue of the breakdown of the ocean's thermohaline circulation that may possibly herald the onset of another ice age. This possibility is not far-fetched because of the sensitivity of the phenomenon to wind force, sunlight intensity,...
Thrust family 4, located in the hinterland of the mountain wedge, absorbed the least amount of the total convergence, with no large earthquakes occurrence in this stage, contributing to the emplacement of the Greater Himalayan Complex. The slips absorbed by the remnant three thrust families result...
The block is interpreted to have formed as a result of the plate convergence between the Northeast Japan and Eurasian plates and all available data, including seismic profiles and geochemical analyses, suggest that the Okushiri Ridge constitutes a piece of oceanic crust of the Japan Basin. ...

Because a continent-arc collision stops the continuous supply of oceanic lithosphere to the subduction zone, Karabinos et al. (1998) also hypothesized that the Bronson Hill arc formed above a new west-dipping subduction zone near the Laurentian margin, after a flip in subduction polarity. ...
A long-lived convergent margin along southern Laurentia is now well accepted; but lithospheric extension and basin development can be interrupted by intermittent subduction of buoyant oceanic plateaus while the cyclicity depends on the frequency of plateau arrivals. Convergence with a protracted extension ...
