On the Role of Rheological Memory for Convection‐Driven Plate Reorganizations
Abstract Understanding the temporal variability of plate tectonics is key to unraveling how mantle convection transports heat, and one critical factor for the formation and evolution of plate boundaries is rheological “memory,” that is, the persistence of weak zones. Here, we analyze the impact of s...
