FAST SUBDUCTION, SLOW EXHUMATION: DATING CONTINENTAL SUBDUCTION BENEATH THE OMAN OPHIOLITE
Geological Society of America Abstracts with Programs, 2016Continent subduction beneath continental upper plates has occurred at a broad range of rates that correlate with the size of the subducted fragment: small slivers subduct and exhume fast and cold while larger fragments undergo much slower and hotter orogenesis (Kylander-Clark et al., 2012).

Accretionary complex: Geological records from oceanic subduction to continental deep subduction
Science China Earth Sciences, 2020Accretionary complex was usually formed by offscraping of the subducting crustal material over the trench and thus often referred to as subduction zone melange. The structure, composition and forming process of accretionary wedges can provide important insights into the evolution history of ocean basin, ocean-continent material cycle, continental ...

Subduction Zones, Island Arcs and Active Continental Margins
2010Subduction zones are created when two lithospheric plates move against each other and one of the two plates descends under the other through the process of subduction. However, only oceanic lithosphere is able to sink deeply into the Earth’s mantle to become reincorporated there.

Differentiation of Continental Subduction Mode: Numerical Modeling
Journal of Earth Science, 2019The convergence of the multi-layered continental lithospheres with variable and complex thermal and rheological properties results in various modes of continental collision with distinct deformation behavior of the lithospheric mantle. Using high-resolution thermo-mechanical numerical models, we systematically investigated the effects of crustal ...

Lithos, 2015
We herein reappraise the pressure–temperature (PT) evolution of the high-pressure and low-temperature (HP–LT) Tavsanli zone (western Turkey) in order to (i) better characterize rock units exhumed along a cooling subduction interface, from birth to steady state and (ii) constrain exhumation and detachment dynamics, as well as mechanical coupling between

Effects of subduction termination processes on continental lithosphere
2022<p>Subduction is the main driver of tectonic activity on Earth. Termination of subduction is followed by diverse and unexpected tectonic activity, such as anomalous magmatism, exhumation, subsidence and subsequent rapid uplift. What fundamentally drives these processes remain enigmatic.

Metamorphic chemical geodynamics in continental subduction zones
Chemical Geology, 2012Abstract Chemical geodynamics is an integrated discipline that studies the geochemical structure and tectonic evolution of geospheres with the aim of linking tectonic processes to geochemical products in the Earth system. It was primarily focused on mantle geochemistry, with an emphasis on geochemical recycling in oceanic subduction zones.
