Arc‐continent collision and orocline formation: Closing of the Central American seaway
Camilo Montes,Camilo Montes,Germán Bayona,Agustín Cardona,Agustín Cardona,David M. Buchs,C. A. Silva,Sara Morón,Natalia Hoyos,Diego A. Ramírez,Carlos Jaramillo,Victor A. Valencia +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, geochronological and geochemical data from the Isthmus of Panama were used to reconstruct the closure of the Central American seaway at 15 Ma, suggesting that by the time of northern hemisphere glaciation, deep-water circulation had long been severed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Cretaceous arc development on the SW margin of the Caribbean Plate: Insights from the Golfito, Costa Rica, and Azuero, Panama, complexes
TL;DR: In this article, a combined tectonostratigraphic and petrologic study with which protoarc initiation at the margin of an oceanic plateau (89-85 Ma) is documented is documented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mahoney,Kazuyoshi Moriya,Alexander R. L. Nichols,Svenja Rausch,S-I Sano,Jason B. Sylvan,Rebecca Williams +29 more
TL;DR: This paper used 40Ar/39Ar age dating and palaeomagnetic inclination data from four seamounts associated with the Louisville hotspot in the South Pacific Ocean to show that this hotspot has been relatively stable in terms of its location.
Journal ArticleDOI
Present-day principal horizontal stress orientations in the Kumano forearc basin of the southwest Japan subduction zone determined from IODP NanTroSEIZE drilling Site C0009

TL;DR: In this paper, a 1.6 km riser borehole was drilled at site C0009 of the NanTroSEIZE, in the center of the Kumano forearc basin, as a landward extension of previous drilling in the southwest Japan Nankai subduction zone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Cretaceous to Miocene seamount accretion and mélange formation in the Osa and Burica Peninsulas (Southern Costa Rica): episodic growth of a convergent margin
David M. Buchs,Peter Baumgartner,Claudia Baumgartner-Mora,Alexandre N. Bandini,Sarah-Jane Jackett,Marc-Olivier Diserens,Jérôme Stucki +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a multidisciplinary study of the Osa and Burica peninsulas, Costa Rica, has been conducted, where the authors recognized the OsA Igneous Complex and Osa Melange as records of a complex Late Cretaceous-Miocene tectonic-sedimentary history, and provided new geological constraints for seamount subduction and associated accretionary processes.
