A common feature of tectonic reconstructions is the migration of subduction zones and their
interactions, resulting in complex tectonic patterns. Reduced migration rates, uplift, strong …

Subduction zones are pivotal for the recycling of Earth’s outer layer into its interior. However,
the conditions under which new subduction zones initiate are enigmatic. Here, we …

Gaps within a subducting plate can alter the surrounding mantle flow field and the overall
subduction zone dynamics by allowing hot sub-slab mantle to flow through the gaps and into …

Background/Aims: Interleukin 1β (IL-1β) increases the release of corticotropin-releasing factor
(CRF) in the brain through prostaglandin pathways. Because central CRF inhibits gastric …

Slab‐slab interaction is a characteristic feature of tectonically complex areas. Outward dipping
double‐sided subduction is one of these complex cases, which has several examples on …

Ancient DNA sampling methods—although optimized for efficient DNA extraction—are
destructive, relying on drilling or cutting and powdering (parts of) bones and teeth. As the field of …

Human culture, biology, and health were shaped dramatically by the onset of agriculture ∼12,000
y BP This shift is hypothesized to have resulted in increased individual fitness and …

Subduction-induced mantle circulation plays an important role in the dynamics of convergent
margins. Different components of the flow, ie toroidal and poloidal, provide relevant driving …

The interaction of neighboring subducting lithospheres is a characteristic feature of many
tectonically complex areas. Here we use numerical modeling to study the interactions between …

The study of slab‐slab interactions has come to the front of geodynamics researches to explain
geological and geophysical observations from tectonically complex areas. Here we aim …
