Variable plate kinematics promotes changes in back-arc deformation regime along the north-eastern Eurasia plate boundary

Abstract The stretching of the lithosphere leading to back-arc basins formation generally develops behind arc-trench systems and is considered the consequence of slab retreat relative to the upper plate. Here, we examine the deformation regime evolution within the overriding plate due to subduction...
