Southwest Pacific Absolute Plate Kinematic Reconstruction Reveals Major Cenozoic Tonga‐Kermadec Slab Dragging

Tectonic plates subducting at trenches having strikes oblique to the absolute subducting plate motion undergo trench‐parallel slab motion through the mantle, recently defined as a form of “slab dragging.” We investigate here long‐term slab‐dragging components of the Tonga‐Kermadec subduction system...
