Journal ArticleDOI
Community infrastructure and repository for marine magnetic identifications
Maria Seton,Joanne M. Whittaker,Paul Wessel,R. Dietmar Müller,Charles DeMets,Sergey Merkouriev,S. C. Cande,Carmen Gaina,Graeme Eagles,Roi Granot,Joann M. Stock,Nicky M. Wright,Simon Williams +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have developed an open-source, community-driven online infrastructure as a repository for quality-checked magnetic anomaly identifications from all ocean basins and provide a global sample data set that comprises 96,733 individually picked magnetic anomaly identifiers organized by ocean basin and publication reference.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fingerprinting Proterozoic bedrock in interior Wilkes Land, East Antarctica
TL;DR: These new geological insights into the ice-covered bedrock of Wilkes Land substantially improve correlations of Antarctic and Australian geological elements and provide key constraints on the tectonic architecture of this sector of the East Antarctic Shield and its role in supercontinent reconstructions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insights on the kinematics of the India-Eurasia collision from global geodynamic models
Sabin Zahirovic,R. Dietmar Müller,Maria Seton,Nicolas Flament,Michael Gurnis,Joanne M. Whittaker +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors test two end-member collision scenarios using coupled global plate motion-subduction models and show that the conventional scenario does not adequately reproduce mantle structure related to Tethyan convergence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term interaction between mid-ocean ridges and mantle plumes
Joanne M. Whittaker,Juan Carlos Afonso,Sheona Masterton,Ralph Müller,Paul Wessel,Simon Williams,Maria Seton +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, plate tectonic reconstructions reveal long-lived interactions between mantle plumes and mid-ocean ridges that imply feedback between plate boundaries and the deep mantle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revised tectonic evolution of the Eastern Indian Ocean
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a model of relative motions among India, Australia and Antarctica from the onset of continental rifting to the establishment of rapid seafloor spreading, at ~43 Ma.
