Episodicity and the dance of late Mesozoic magmatism and deformation along the northern circum-Pacific margin: North-eastern Russia to the Cordillera
New U-Pb geochronology and a large and growing geochemical data base has clarified the
age and composition of the extensive magmatic belts of NE Russia, allowing a better …

Accretionary orogens through Earth history
Accretionary orogens form at intraoceanic and continental margin convergent plate
boundaries. They include the supra-subduction zone forearc, magmatic arc and back-arc …

Thermal–petrological controls on the location of earthquakes within subducting plates
We find that in young and warm subducting plates, earthquakes occur just below the Moho.
In older plates, earthquakes occur throughout the subducting oceanic crust, as well as the …
