Delamination Tectonics

Delamination Tectonics is a geodynamic process in regional tectonics whereby the lower portion of the lithospheric mantle detaches and sinks into the asthenosphere, leading to crustal uplift, magmatism, and mountain building through gravitational instability and mantle-crust interaction.
