Researchers created a seismic map of Earth's interior beneath the southeastern Pacific Ocean and discovered an ancient slab ...

Wang hopes to create a more comprehensive map of ancient subduction and upwelling (the geological process that occurs when subducted material heats up and rises to the surface again) zones ...

A subduction zone is created where two plates converge, with one sinking into the mantle. Dynamics along the plate interface create earthquakes, magma generated above the sinking slab leads to ...

1. Figure 1: Map of the northern Cascadia subduction zone showing the distribution of earthquakes in the subducting Juan de Fuca plate and the locations of seismic cross-sections. Green dashed line ...

A mysterious discovery reveals a story from the dinosaur age: evidence of an ancient seafloor that sunk deep into the Earth.

Scientists have uncovered evidence of a long-lost underwater collision that occurred over 100 million years ago, dramatically ...

Along this fraught stretch, called the Cascadia subduction zone ... they used the data to construct a comprehensive map of ...

"This thickened area is like a fossilized fingerprint of an ancient piece of seafloor that subducted into the Earth ...

Together, they shed light on the world in its infancy ... one tectonic plate slid under another in a subduction zone. Looking at de Ronde’s map of the Barberton Greenstone Belt, they realised ...
