Eastern Indonesia hosts one of the most complex and fascinating tectonic systems on the planet. Palaeogeographical reconstructions indicate that subduction and deformation of a single slab of oceanic crust created the complicated configuration.

I live above a “failed” slab of the Earths crust. The Farallon Plate slid under the North American Plate over a period of many millions of years. The process of subduction seems nearly complete now, and so we have some idea of how it all worked out over time.

Subduction zones are characterized by multiple behaviors, dynamics, or geometries. Most of them results from the complex interplay between various parameters. In this article, we define the most common parameters used by scientists and then mention the studies where (set of) parameters are tested empirically, or experimentally.

Age-Dependent Subduction of Oceanic Lithosphere and the Rheology of Subducted Slabs
1983ABSTRACT On the basis of observational data and model calculations the temperature conditions at the depths of the deepest earthquake foci in subduction zones were determined. It is shown that a simple rheological model, in which the transition from elastic-brittle to plastic behaviour is temperature- and pressure-dependent, adequately explains the ...
