Northwest Pacific-Izanagi subduction histories along Eurasia are poorly constrained due to extensive subduction, which partially consumed the western Pacific plate and entire Izanagi plate, its hypothesized conjugate margin. Here we reconstruct NW tectonics since Cretaceous times by mapping structurally restoring (i.e. unfolding) subducted slabs from regional global tomography, re-creating vani...
