Abstract: New field relations and U‐Pb ages of detrital zircons from Middle Devonian‐Upper Triassic sedimentary rocks in the South Tianshan constrain the time and style of terminal suturing between the Tarim Craton and the Yili‐Central Tianshan… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g48547.1
Abstract: Along the present-day circum-Pacific subduction girdle, seamount subduction is known to have significant effects on subduction dynamics including on seismicity and arc magmatism. Because seamount subduction should have occurred throughout much of Earth history, its… read more here.

DOI: 10.2113/2020/7866431
Abstract: Identification of slab window process is important for understanding the nature of the accretionary orogenesis. In this study, we report detailed petrological, geochronological, geochemical, Sr–Nd isotopic, and mineral chemical data for two dyke-like gabbroic intrusions… read more here.
