Do microcontinents nucleate subduction initiation?

Geology, 2023
Abstract Subduction initiation is a pivotal process in plate tectonics. Models of subduction initiation include the collapse of passive margins, oceanic transform faults, inversion of oceanic core complexes, and ridge failure but have ignored the potential effects of continental crust relicts within the oceanic crust.

Plume-induced subduction initiation: single- or multi-slab subduction?

2020
<p>The formation of new subduction zones is a key component of global plate tectonics. Initiation of subduction following the impingement of a hot buoyant mantle plume is one of the few scenarios that allow breaking the lithosphere and recycling a stagnant lid without requiring any pre-existing weak zones.
