Subduction Zone Deformation

Subduction Zone Deformation is a geological process characterized by the mechanical alteration and progressive strain of crustal and lithospheric materials within a convergent plate boundary where flexural, shear, and compressional stresses arise from the descent of an oceanic plate beneath another tectonic plate.
