- Subduction - Wikipedia
Diagram of the geological process of subduction Subduction is a geological process in which the oceanic lithosphere and some continental lithosphere is recycled into the Earth's mantle at the convergent boundaries between tectonic plates
- Introduction to Subduction Zones: Amazing Events in Subduction Zones
When tectonic plates converge, one plate slides beneath the other plate, or subducts, descending into the Earth’s mantle at rates of 2-8 centimeters (1–3 inches) per year
- What Is The Process Of Subduction? - WorldAtlas
In geological terms, subduction is the act of one tectonic plate moving under another tectonic plate at the point of their convergent boundary As the subducting plate moves under its neighboring tectonic plate, gravity pushes it further down and into the mantle layer of the earth

Learn how subduction occurs and how the process forms some of Earth's most powerful and devastating earthquakes
- What is a subduction zone? - Live Science
When two tectonic plates meet at a subduction zone and one slides underneath the other, this lithosphere material curves down into the hot mantle This subduction process frequently occurs
- Subduction zone | Plate Tectonics, Oceanic Crust Volcanism - Britannica
Subduction zone, oceanic trench area marginal to a continent in which, according to the theory of plate tectonics, older and denser seafloor underthrusts the continental mass, dragging downward into the Earth’s upper mantle the accumulated trench sediments
- Convergent Plate Boundaries—Subduction Zones - Geology (U. S. National . . .
Subduction zones form where a plate with thinner (less-buoyant) oceanic crust descends beneath a plate with thicker (more-buoyant) continental crust
