Subduction Zone Obliquity Dictates Global Trench‐Parallel Inner Forearc Deformation
Abstract Although subduction zones are characterized by convergence, the upper plates of subduction zones exhibit a diverse range of deformation styles that are often inconsistent with regional convergence. While several theories have been proposed to explain these variations, the underlying factors driving these differences are still not fully ...
