A free plate surface and weak oceanic crust produce single‐sided subduction on Earth (2012, background): “However in recent Earth history, plate tectonics is certainly characterized by single-sided subduction as observed nowadays by seismic tomography [King, 2001; Wortel and Spakman, 2000; Zhao, 2004].”
Stagnant slab : A review (2009, background): “Zhao, and M. Obayashi (2006), Towards Mapping the three-dimensional distribution of water in the transition zone from P-velocity tomography and 660-km discontinuity depths, in Earth’s Deep Water Cycle, AGU Geophysical Monograph, 167, 237-249.”
Multiscale seismic tomography and mantle dynamics (2009, background): “The active intraplate volcanoes in NE Asia continent (such as Changbai and Wudalianchi volcanoes) are not plume-related hotspots, but are a kind of back-arc volcanoes whose formation was closely related to the deep subduction of the Pacific slab and its stagnancy in the mantle transition zone (Zhao,”
Deep slab subduction and dehydration and their geodynamic consequences: Evidence from seismology and mineral physics (2009, methodology): “Similar to the regular (small) mantle wedge under island arcs, complicated dynamic processes may have taken place in the BMW, such as corner flow and deep slab dehydration, which may cause upwelling of hot asthenospheric materials and lead to lithospheric fractures and thinning under East China (Zha”
Why is terrestrial subduction one-sided? (2008, background): “Seismic tomography has revealed the structure of subduction zones in a variety of geodynamic settings ( Zhao, 2004 ).”
