Subduction initiation triggered by collision: A review based on examples and models
G Yang - Earth-Science Reviews, 2022 - Elsevier
Subduction initiation is one of the main unsolved issues in plate tectonics theory with
different proposed mechanisms. In the arc (plateau, terrane)-continent collision models, a …

Timescales of subduction initiation and evolution of subduction thermal regimes
Subduction zones are first-order features of plate tectonics on Earth, yet the mechanisms by
which subduction initiates remain enigmatic and controversial. Here, we reappraise the …

Venus' light slab hinders its development of planetary-scale subduction
Terrestrial planet Venus has a similar size, mass, and bulk composition to Earth. Previous
studies proposed that local plume-induced subduction existed on both early Earth and …
