Rheology of Metasedimentary Rocks at the Base of the Subduction Seismogenic Zone

Rheology of Metasedimentary Rocks at the Base of the Subduction Seismogenic Zone

Abstract The Arosa Zone, Central Alps, represents a Cretaceous to Paleogene fossil subduction interface from paleodepths of 10 to >35 km. Metasedimentary schists directly below a preserved seismogenic zone exhibit viscous (foliations, folds, and lineations) and brittle (crack‐seal quartz ± calcit...
