Ultrahigh temperature (UHT) metamorphism is the most thermally extreme form of regional crustal metamorphism, with temperatures exceeding 900° C. UHT crustal metamorphism is …
Modern-style plate tectonics, often characterised by subduction, is a fundamental dynamic process for planet Earth. Subduction related eclogites are widely used to indicate initiation of …
