Evolution of the South China Sea: Revised ages for breakup and seafloor spreading
TL;DR: The seafloor spreading history of the South China Sea has been interpreted in different ways in the past and the debate over the correct timing of the major tectonic events continues as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual model for rift-evolution at conjugate magma-poor margins in time and space is presented, based on the early Cenozoic South China Sea rift architecture at the distal margins.

A review of Wilson Cycle plate margins: A role for mantle plumes in continental break-up along sutures?
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the passive margins of the Atlantic and Indian oceans with the aim to evaluate the extent in which oceanic openings used former sutures and analyse the potential role of mantle plumes in continental break-up.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report International Ocean Discovery Program drilling data from the northern South China Sea margin, testing the magma-poor margin model outside the North Atlantic, showing initiation of mid-Ocean Ridge basalt type magmatism during breakup, with a narrow and rapid transition into igneous oceanic crust.

Crustal-scale seismic profiles across the Manila subduction zone: The transition from intraoceanic subduction to incipient collision
D. H. Eakin,Kirk D McIntosh,H. J. Van Avendonk,Luc L. Lavier,Ryan Lester,Char-Shine Liu,Chao Shing Lee +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used multichannel seismic reflection and wide-angle seismic data sets to model the velocity structure of the incipient arc-continent collision along two trench perpendicular transects in the Bashi Strait between Taiwan and Luzon.

Basin-forming processes and the deep structure of the Campos basin, offshore Brazil
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss a worldwide dataset of deep seismic reflection profiles that help the understanding of crustal behaviour and the genetic processes that are involved in the formation of sedimentary basins.

Rifting to Spreading Process along the Northern Continental Margin of the South China Sea
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the transition from rifting to spreading along the northern margin of the South China Sea (SCS), made possible by the amalgamation of newly acquired and existing geophysical data.

Chapter 4: Regional magnetic domains of the Circum-Arctic: A framework for geodynamic interpretation
TL;DR: The magnetic anomaly patterns can be broadly related to general geodynamic classification of the crust into stable, deformed (magnetic and nonmagnetic), deep magnetic high, oceanic and large igneous province domains as discussed by the authors.
