Greater India Basin hypothesis and a two-stage Cenozoic collision between India and Asia (2012, methodology): “(A and C) Sixty and 30 Ma plate reconstructions of the India–Asia collision zone in a moving hotspot reference frame (54) projected above seismic tomographic images, derived from the UU-P07 model (55), at 1,175 (0.”
Trench migration, net rotation and slab-mantle coupling (2008, methodology): “…Sdrolias and Muller (2006) reconstructed the position of the Pacific trenches over the Tertiary using an updated dataset of paleoceanic age grids associated with a moving Atlantic– Indian Ocean hot spot reference frame (O'Neill et al., 2005), recognizing the dominant rollback motion of trenches.”
Tectonic speed limits from plate kinematic reconstructions (2015, methodology): “Both the moving hotspot (O’Neill et al., 2005) and subduction (van der Meer et al.”
