There are three primary ways that tectonic plates interact with each other. The area where plates meet are called plate boundaries. The first is divergent boundaries. These boundaries occur where plates are spreading apart, forming new crust. The second is transform boundaries. These boundaries occur...
Located on the east coast of Sicily, Mount Etna is one of the world's most active volcanoes. Its eruptions occur at the summit, where there are four craters: the Voragine and the Bocca Nuova, formed in 1945 and 1928 respectively, the Northeast Crater, the highest point on Etna (3330 m...
formed after the northward subduction of the African plate below the Eurasian plate (Meulenkamp et al.1988; Jackson1994). From a petrogenetic point of view, SAAVA is formed by partial melting of metasomatized
Similar large earthquakes would occur again in the coming decades on the active thrust faults in southern Hokkaido where the arc-arc collision is an ongoing process. Hence, much attention should be paid to the seismic risk there, and actions should be taken to reduce the seismic hazard. ...
Ocean eddies play a critical role in climate and marine life. In the rapidly warming Arctic, little is known about how ocean eddy activity will change because existing climate models cannot resolve Arctic Ocean mesoscale eddies. Here, by employing a next
The high-stress state inferred by the b-value analysis is concordant with those characteristics of interplate slip events. We found that the M6.8 earthquake on May 1 occurred near an area where the b value remained small, even after the M6.9 quake. The ruptured areas by the two earthquakes...
In the GCM, the North Atlantic cooling is restricted to the near surface layers and a deeper (1000 m) band between ca. 20 and 40°N. The latter cooling band follows the subduction path of the subtropical gyre, and is a typical result in experiments that change AMOC or gyre strength (...
Since most of the hot springs is exposed in igneous rocks, and the granites are widely distributed in the study area, the residual heat of Yanshanian intrusive rocks was once considered as the heat Energies 2018, 11, 2170 9 of 15 changing subduction angles for J-K magmatism [34], mantle ...
Two causes for subduction initiation have been proposed. The first is that westward motion of Tierra del Fuego relative to the Antarctic Peninsula led to the development of an active margin to the east of South Orkney Islands continental crust, then still part of the Antarctic Peninsula, and ...
