Seamount subduction and accretion in West Junggar, NW China: A review
Seamounts are prominent seafloor features that make inhomogeneous oceanic crust, carried by some moving plates and eventually accreted or subducted at convergent margins. These seamounts contribute to subduction dynamics, continental crustal growth, and chemical mantle heterogeneities. We present a...
