Though Cenozoic link dextral pull-apart rift system in the northwest Pacific margin basically inherited their original tectonic framework in post rifting period

they underwent some reformation

especially the Philippine Sea Basin.In the Miocene

New Guinea Block of the north drifting Australia Plate wedged in the Philippine Sea Basin and turned the basin into a rhombic transpressional basin;the central fault of West Philippine Sea Basin cut NW-W-trending R′faults at small angle;Shikoku and Parece Vela Sea Basins was turned into impact rifts.The bending and cracking of Mariana Ridge resulted in Mariana Ses Basin

the East China Sea was compressed and deformed due to the formation of Ryukyu Arc.In the end of the Miocene

Taiwan Island began to form.In Pliocene-Quaternary

the westward compression of Pacific Plate was more intensive than the northward compression of Australia Plate

this resulted in sinistral drifting of New Guinea Trench.The India Plate pushed Eurasia Plate intensively

leading to the stacking of weak dextral pull-apart action.According to global tectonic evolution

the northward drift of the Austratia and Eurasia Plates during Neogene Quaternary could result in right lateral shift of the San Andreas rift.
