Subduction Dynamics and Mantle Pressure: 1. An Analytical Framework Relating Subduction Geometry, Plate Motion, and Asthenospheric Pressure
Abstract Recent work suggests that slab dip may be controlled by differences in dynamic pressure above and below the slab at mid‐asthenospheric depth, motivating exploration of how plate and slab motion are linked to dynamic pressure in the asthenosphere. This paper, the first of two companion paper...
