TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combined analyses of deep tow magnetic anomalies and International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 349 cores to show that seafloor spreading started around 33 Ma in the northeastern South China Sea (SCS), but varied slightly by 1-2 Myr along the northern continent-ocean boundary.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the International Ocean Discovery Program Expedition 349 data to map seismic sequence boundaries and facies of the central basin and neighboring regions of the South China Sea and found that the most active faulting and vertical uplifting now occur in the southern East Subbasin, caused most likely by the active and fastest subduction/obduction of Taiwan and the collision between the northeast Palawan and the Luzon arc.

TL;DR: In this article, a 3D printed fourth-order cavity bandpass filter (BPF) with a 3% fractional bandwidth is presented, which was designed using two high- $Q$ spherical dual-mode cavity resonators and fabricated using a stereolithography-based 3D printing technique.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D interpreted deformation surface of the subducting Pacific Plate was obtained by removing from the observed bathymetry the effects of sediment loading, isostatically-compensated topography based on gravity modeling, age-related lithospheric thermal subsidence, and residual short-wavelength features.

TL;DR: In this article, a compact quad-band bandpass filter using quad-mode stepped impedance resonator (QMSIR) is investigated, and the multiple coupling circuits between the input/output ports and QMSIR are applied.
