Abstract:The Kyushu–Palau Ridge (KPR) and adjacent basins are ideal locations for investigating the formation and evolution of marginal seas and initiation of plate subduction. In this study, the tectonic–sedimentary features and crustal structure of the KPR and adjacent basins were investigated using newly obtained deep seismic reflection and borehole data. The initial mechanism of subduction in the West Philippine Sea and its tectonic evolution are discussed. Two sets of sedimentary strata with different provenances … Show more
