TL;DR: The Izu-Bonin Trench is deeper than the Japan Trench and filled by a thick turbiditic series as mentioned in this paper, and its anomalous depth is explained by the westward retreat of the edge of the northwestward moving Philippine Sea plate.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 16°40′ S triple junction in the North Fiji Basin (SW Pacific)
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed morphologic and kinematic study of the 16°40′ S Ridge-Ridge-Fracture Zone triple junction was carried out on three oceanographic cruises carried out by French, American and Japanese ships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Central Japan Triple Junction revisited
Xavier Le Pichon,Philippe Huchon +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a relation for the three-dimensional existence of TTT triple junctions is derived and shown that it is satisfied at the unstable central Japan triple junction, and the geometry of the subducting Pacific plate beneath the Philippine Sea and Eurasian plates is used to show that the present situation did not hold before about 3 Ma.

Comment on “Kinematics of the Philippine Sea Plate” by B. Ranken, R. K. Cardwell, and D. E. Karig
Journal ArticleDOI
Propagating rift and overlapping spreading center in the North Fiji Basin
TL;DR: In this article, structural analysis of multi-beam echo sounder and seismic data combined with submersible observations (18 dives in this area) allow a precise study of relationships between the N-N5°E and N20°E axes near 18°30′S.
