Subduction Zone Morphology

Subduction Zone Morphology is a geological framework that characterizes the three-dimensional surface and subsurface topographic expression of convergent plate margins, distinguished by the systematic deformation of the overriding and subducting plates, sediment accretion or erosion, and the spatial distribution of seafloor features such as trenches, forearc basins, and outer rise structures.
