Plate tectonics: what, where, why, and when? by Palin, RM, Santosh, M

“…The theory of plate tectonics is widely accepted by scientists and provides a robust framework with which to describe and predict the behavior of Earth's rigid outer shell – the lithosphere – in space and time. …”

Secular change and the onset of plate tectonics on Earth by Palin, RM, Santosh, M, Cao, W, Li, S-S, Hernández-Uribe, D, Parsons, A

“…First, we describe the different types of tectonic/geodynamic regimes that may occur on Earth or any other silicate body, and then review different models for the thermal evolution of the Earth and the geodynamic conditions necessary for plate tectonics to stabilize on a rocky planet. …”

Structural and tectonic development of the Indo-Burma Ranges by Morley, C, Naing, T, Searle, M, Robinson, S

“…The late deformation events, sedimentary depocentres, and impinging thick crustal regions of the eastern Himalayas and Shillong Plateau, have all affected the overall shape (wedge taper) of the modern IBR, with the wedge and retro-wedge behaving anomalously compared with typical accretionary prisms. All tectonic models proposed for the IBR/WBT have weaknesses or ambiguities, and there is considerable scope for future research to resolve the many outstanding, tectonic, metamorphic, structural, and sedimentary issues. …”

Geomorphic constraints on the active tectonics of southern Taiwan by Ramsey, L, Walker, RT, Jackson, J

“…Taiwan is a region of rapid active tectonics, yet the study of the tectonic processes that shape the interior of the island is difficult due to the high rates of erosion and dense vegetation. …”

TECTONIC COMPLEXITIES IN SOUTH FIJI MARGINAL BASIN by Weissel, J, Watts, A

“…Unidentified east-west-trending lineations west of the northsouth pattern suggest a complicated tectonic history for the South Fiji basin. It seems that the evolution of the basin involved more than just one simple two-limb spreading system. © 1975.…”

Venus tectonics: initial analysis from magellan. by Solomon, S, Head, J, Kaula, WM, McKenzie, D, Parsons, B, Phillips, R, Schubert, G, Talwani, M

“…No long, large-offset strike-slip faults have been observed, although limited local horizontal shear is accommodated across many zones of crustal shortening. In general, tectonic features on Venus are unlike those in Earth's oceanic regions in that strain typically is distributed across broad zones that are one to a few hundred kilometers wide, and separated by stronger and less deformed blocks hundreds of kilometers in width, as in actively deforming continental regions on Earth.…”

TECTONIC CONTROLS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF UNCONFORMITIES - THE NORTH SLOPE, ALASKA by Coakley, B, Watts, A

“…The geology of northern Alaska is defined by two complementary, synchronous tectonic events. Opening of the Canada basin breached the south facing Ellesmerian passive margin in the Late Jurassic, cutting off northerly derived sediment and initiating thermal subsidence of the north facing Beaufort passive margin. …”
