Megathrust earthquakes occur when stress at subduction zones is released, causing significant plate slippage. These events disrupt long-term tectonic changes, complicating modeling efforts.

Aside from the danger they pose, such earthquakes disrupt the slow, long-term changes occurring at subduction zones. The cycle of sudden earthquakes and slow plate movement makes it difficult for ...

The modern understanding of the plate tectonic cycle predicts that remnants of submerged plates will be found near subduction zones. However, a new high-resolution model shows that these remnants ...

The result of this collision is something scientists call a “subduction zone” deep within the Earth’s mantle. Because these subduction zones are too deep to measure directly, researchers typically use ...
