Mesozoic mafic magmatism in North China: Implications for thinning and destruction of cratonic lithosphere
Y Zheng, Z Xu, Z Zhao, L Dai - Science China Earth Sciences, 2018 - Springer
Abstract The North China Craton (NCC) has been thinned from> 200 km to< 100 km in its
eastern part. The ancient subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) has been replaced by …

Age of the subducting Pacific slab beneath East Asia and its geodynamic implications
We study the age of the subducting Pacific slab beneath East Asia using a high-resolution
model of P-wave tomography and paleo-age data of ancient seafloor. Our results show that …

Continental flood basalts derived from the hydrous mantle transition zone
It has previously been postulated that the Earth's hydrous mantle transition zone may play a
key role in intraplate magmatism, but no confirmatory evidence has been reported. Here we …
