Impact of upper mantle convection on lithosphere hyperextension and subsequent horizontally forced subduction initiation
<p>Many plate tectonic processes, such as subduction initiation, are embedded in long-term (<span class="inline-formula">>100</span> Myr) geodynamic cycles often involving subsequent phases of extension, cooling without plate deformation and convergence. However, t...
