sentences:  The Euler pole for PH-PA as inferred from the NUVEL-1A model for current plate motions lies about 8°N 137.3°E, near the southern end of the Philippine Sea Plate.PA rotates around this pole CCW ~1°/Ma with respect to PH.This means that relative to the southernmost IBM, PA is moving NW and being subducted at about 20–30 mm/y, whereas relative to the northernmost IBM, PA is moving WNW and twice as fast.
