Role of subduction dynamics on the unevenly distributed volcanism at the Middle American subduction system

Abstract A typical subduction of an oceanic plate beneath a continent is expected to be accompanied by arc volcanoes along the convergent margin. However, subduction of the Cocos plate at the Middle American subduction system has resulted in an uneven distribution of magmatism/volcanism along strike...
