Compressible Convection and Subduction: Kinematic and Dynamic Modeling

Subduction is a dynamic and time-dependent process which requires time-dependent models for its study. In addition, due to the very high pressures within the Earthâ s interior, an evaluation of the role of compressibility in subduction studies should be undertaken. However, most subduction studies...
