Subduction zones of the western Mediterranean.
2008Subduction zones of the western Mediterranean have been extensively studied during the last three decades, through their geologic, petrologic, geophysical, kinematic, and structural features. A synthesis of available data, along with their tectonic interpretation, has been published by FACCENNA et alii (2001).

Sediment subduction and frictional sliding in a subduction zone
Geology, 1980New experimental data for the mechanical and thermodynamic properties of clays at high pressure and high temperature are applied to model the frictional sliding in a subduction zone. The model is believed applicable because of the large volume of pelagic sediments that appear to have been subducted with the oceanic plate along active Pacific margins ...

Subduction Zones in the Oceans
2001The formation of new oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges requires a complementary mechanism by means of which lithospheric plates are consumed. The required destruction of lithospheric plates takes place in subduction zones located in the oceans and along the margins of some continents.

Lay people asked to name notable or particularly dangerous volcanoes are likely to come forth with names such as Krakatau, Mt. St. Helens, Pinatubo, Mt. Pelee, Vesuvius or Santorini. These are all volcanoes that have grown above subduction zones, and all have produced catastrophic or at least highly explosive eruptions.

Metamorphism in subduction zones
1990Subduction zones are associated with the greatest disturbances to the flow of heat from the interior of the Earth. They are also the sites of large departures from isostatic equilibrium in the lithosphere, particularly in the regions where oceanic plates bend to begin their descent into the Earth’s mantle.
