However, this model can satisfy both the paleomagnetic constraints and the geometry with the surrounding plates that requires subduction of the Pacific Plate along the IBM Trench and subduction of the PHS Plate along the Ryukyu Trench.

This major tectonic event modified not only the driving forces of the Pacific plate and thus the plate motion direction, but also those of the surrounding plates through a change in mantle flow.

Based on our data, together with the available paleomagnetic information suggesting clockwise rotation of about 90° since the Eocene and the requirements from geometry with the surrounding plates, we present a model in which the PHS Plate rotated 90° clockwise between 50 and 15 Ma on the Euler pole near 23°N, 162°E, although it is impossible to specifically determine the Euler pole position.
