		The Philippine Sea plate is descending into the mantle beneath Japan with a velocity of several cm/year at the Tokai and Nankai trough region.
		The later arrivals are explained by the reflected waves at the upper boundary of the subducting Philippine Sea plate by an analysis by the use of a ray tracing method.
		Plate convergence rate along the Nankai-Suruga trough is considerably smaller in eastern parts, due partly to the transition from the Amurian to the North American Plate of the landward side, and partly to the motion of the Izu microplate relative to the Philippine Sea Plate (Fig.

	Amurian microplate
		The postulated Amurian plate is in contact with the Eurasian plate (EU), the Okhotsk plate (OK), and the Philippine Sea plate (PH) at its northern, eastern, and southeastern boundaries, respectively.
		We determined the motion of the Amurian plate with respect to the surrounding major plates using, as relative plate motion data, the slip vectors of earthquakes that occurred along these boundaries and the NUVEL-1 data along the NA-PA and EU-NA boundaries.
		The Euler vectors obtained for the Amurian plate are: AM-EU (60.42N, 123.25E, 0.025deg/m.y.), AM-OK (53.20N, 141.95E, 0.476deg/m.y.), and AM-PH (50.84N, 158.13E, 1.204deg/m.y.).

	List of tectonic plates Information
		Tectonic plates are are pieces of the Earth's crust and uppermost mantle, together referred to as the lithosphere.
		The plates are around 100 km (60 miles) thick and consist of two principal types of material: oceanic crust (also called sima from silicon and magnesium) and continental crust (sial from silicon and aluminium).
		The surface of the Earth consists of 14 major plates and 38 minor ones, for a total of 52 plates.

		The P-wave velocity patterns were compared with the aftershock seismicity and the spatial distribution of the b-values, with results suggesting that high velocity correlates with high seismicity and small b-value.

		Subduction erosion is the detachment of upper plate rock and sediment and the downward transport of this material along with the subducting lower plate.
		Basal erosion occurs as the material at the base of the upper plate is detached and moves toward the mantle with the subducting slab.
		In NEJ and SWJ, plate coupling is assumed full for depths from 5 to 50 km and 5 to 25 km, respectively, and gradually decrease to zero at 65 and 35 km, respectively [16].

	Tokyo Project: Non-technical summary - Postseismic deformation mechanisms
		In the study, the group analyzed data that measure deformation in the years after the 1923 kanto earthquake and found that previous ideas regarding postseismic deformation were not accurate.
		This result may bear on the overall question of "asseismic slip" to fill in the gaps that are apparently not filled by seismic slip (that associated with earthquakes).
		This is important because the gap left by the 1923 earthquake would imply much current seismic potential along oceanward parts of the plate interface were it not filled by such aseismic slip events.

	1998 AGU Fall Meeting Abstract by Hyodo and Hirahara (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		We assume the plate interface is 100 % coupled down to a depth of 30 km, and the great interplate earthquakes are repeated in the whole coupling interface with a recurrence time of 100 years.
		Different from the previous studies, with the addition of steady slip on the plate interface, dCF has increased after one earthquake cycle in most of inland faults, though, depending on the value of frictional coefficient and the location and the strike of faults, the amount of the increase differs.
		With this dislocation model including the steady slip on the plate interface, no other regional stress is required to cause the inland intraplate earthquakes.

		However, extent of the Amurian plate, in particular the western boundary, is not clear.
		We speculate that the reason for a coherent behavior of the Amurian plate may be related to the fact that this is an ancient continental block and has a distinctly different material property from surrounding regions.
		A significant discontinuity is indeed observed in the Philippine Sea slab at a depth of 350 +/- 50 km beneath the central and northern Ryukyu Arc that is interpreted as a slab detachment.

	GPS Measurements Reveal Imprint of North American Plate in Siberia -- The Earth Institute at Columbia University (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The junction between Eurasian and North American Plates, which together comprise most of the northern hemisphere, is not only poorly defined seismically, but it passes through a sparsely populated, arctic region of Eastern Siberia where there is very little in the way of seismic detection equipment.
		As a result, the precise location of the boundary has been unverified since the theory of plate tectonics was widely accepted in the late 1960s.
		By looking for very small changes in relation to one another and to the stable interior of both plates, the team was able to determine that the boundary of the Eurasian and North American Plates passes through the Cherskiy Range in Eastern Siberia.

		In 1998, I separated the Amurian plate (AM) from EU, and determined the motions of all the 6 plates in the Asian region simultaneously.
		On the intraplate stresses in the overriding plates, I have derived a general rule relating the forearc's stress and the slab stress in its upper portion and the ridge push.
		For the secular variation of mantle convection, I propose a sequence of the stagnant plate, buoyant slab convection and plate tectonics.

		We first analyze continuous GPS data for Korea,Far East Russia,China, and southwest Japan.Velocities are found to have an apparent eastward component relative to the stable interior of the Eurasian plate,and this eastward motion is fairly rigid in the region that includes Suwon,and Taejon (Korea),Xian (China),and Vladivostok and Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk (Russia).
		This area corresponds to the Amurian plate and its Euler vector with respect to the Eurasian plate is estimated to be (21.7°,108.0°, - 0.092°/Ma).
		The result also implies that the convergence rate at the Nankai Trough is 60 ~ 65 mm/yr and the resultant deformation by this plate interaction reaches the northernmost part of the Chugoku district.

		Heki pointed out the importance of understanding all of the components that affect the deformation of SW Japan: (1) the motion of the Amurian plate, (2) elastic deformation associated with subduction at the Nankai trough, and (3) the collision between the NE Japan and SW Japan arcs.
		The observed motion of the Amurian block inferred from the Baikal data and Ulaanbaatar data is not reproduced in the numerical models of England and Molnar nor Peltzer and Saucier.
		The 1995 Okha earthquake in northern Sakhalin cannot be explained by the relative motion of the Okhotsk plate and Eurasia since it lies very near the pole.

		Unlike political boundaries, plate tectonic boundaries are determined by geologic, geodetic, and seismic data.
		One of the commonly used plate models is NUVEL-1, in which 11 or 14 moving plates are fitted like puzzle pieces around a fixed Pacific plate to create a protective skin over the convecting mantle.
		Surprisingly, some of the major plate boundaries are not unambiguous, and microplates sometimes are used to resolve discrepancies.

	Active Tectonics of Northeast Asia: Using GPS Velocities and Block Modeling to Test Okhotsk Plate Motion Independent ...
		We are also considering the possible influence of an independent Amurian plate that may also affect the determination of Okhotsk plate existence and motion.
		The current plate kinematics of Northeast Asia are somewhat enigmatic due to subduction dominated deformation in the east and little to no differential plate motion in the west which results in diffuse and sparse seismicity.
		However, it is important for defining the plate boundary geometry and constraining the relative motion of the major and minor plate in Northeast Asia and provides a rigorous framework for interpreting seismicity and the surface deformation observed by geodesy.
