A subduction zone is a collision between two of Earth's tectonic plates, where one plate sinks into the mantle underneath the other plate.
试题来源: 解析 A。解析:在板块俯冲带附近,由于板块运动等原因,容易形成岛弧(Island arc)。湖泊(Lake)的形成与多种因素有关,与俯冲带关系不大。草原(Grassland)主要是受气候、植被等因素影响形成的,和俯冲带没有直接关系。沙丘(Sand dune)主要形成于沙漠等地区,与俯冲带无关。

SubductionThis chapter seeks to assess the future risks to Indonesian mega-cities by examining the record of tectonically generated disasters in the past. It argues that there are two clear trends, to some extedoi:10.1007/978-981-287-649-2_3Anthony Reid...
Slab2.0 is a three-dimensional (3D) compilation of global subduction zone geometries, separated into regional models for each major subduction zone. Refer to Hayes et al., 2018, Science for more details. This code contains functions for making 3D slab geometries and for updating the input for ...
6.1. Early Devonian intraoceanic, suprasubduction zone ophiolite The Careón Unit is an ophiolitic sequence exposed in the Southeast of the Órdenes Complex. A harzburgitic composition can be inferred for the ultramafic section [22], whereas the gabbroic section is a complex network of multiple...
subduction zones, where the relationship between MV plumbing systems and slow-slip mechanisms is an emerging field in earthquake research. MV instrumentation with surface piezometers may provide valuable information on understanding the shear-strain coupling at depth, within the seismogenic zone. The ...
A remarkable example of such behavior is the Colombia–Ecuador subduction zone that experienced a complex sequence of earthquakes since the beginning of the 20th century (see Fig. 1). In 1906, the great MW=8.6 earthquake ruptured a ∼500-km-long segment of the subduction interface (Gutenberg...
As in the past, large destructive tsunamigenic earthquakes can occur along major faults in the east Makran region, near Karachi, as well as along the western end of the subduction zone. In fact, recent seismic activity indicates that a large earthquake is possible in the region west of the...
Oxidising nature of the metasomatizing fluids typical of subduction zone settings (Malaspina et al. 2009; Malaspina and Tumiati 2012; Cannaò and Malaspina 2018; Tumiati and Malaspina 2019) is responsible for mobilisation of carbon as liquid carbonate (e.g. Tumiati and Malaspina 2019; Stagno ...
