DOI: 10.1007/s11069-020-04073-x
Abstract: The arc of the Lesser Antilles is associated with a significant tectonic activity due to the subduction of the Atlantic oceanic plate under the Caribbean plate. Earthquakes in this context have the potential to trigger… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gca.2017.05.025
Abstract: Abstract Arc magmas are very distinct in their geochemical signatures, a consequence of trace element enriched components from the subducting slab that are incorporated into melts of the overlying mantle wedge. However, it is not… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2020.228323
Abstract: Abstract As subduction zones and their related processes are often studied in 2D, or cylindrical 3D sections, the dynamic effects of trench curvature and its evolution through time remain under-explored. Whereas temporal variations in trench… read more here.
