Tectonic deformation at the outer rise of subduction zones

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Geophys. J. Int. ( et al. from the State Key Laboratory of Lithospheric Evolution, Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China have published the research: Tectonic deformation at the outer rise of subduction zones, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The models show a slight increase of fault spacing from 3.5 to 4.5 km from 70 to 130 Myr old plate.
  • how: The model results show that plastic weakening and friction coefficient of the slab mantle exhibit a significant impact on fault pattern while plate age and elasticity . . .
