From: Episodic zircon age spectra mimic fluctuations in subduction
Episodic age distribution of zircons in the Phanerozoic. Age frequency of Phanerozoic detrital zircons from arc environments, from the database of Voice et al.2. Vertical yellow bars mark major continental assembly events. The red-dashed line shows the subduction area flux of the last 410 Ma, shifted by −15 Ma according to the best-fit correlation lag-time determined by Hounslow et al.20.
