T24C:
Subduction across Scales VII


Session ID#: 10738

Session Description:
Both risk assessment and lithosphere dynamics call for a better understanding of subduction zones, particularly along and across the  subduction interface.

How can we bridge the gap between observations made at rock and plate scale, or between signals lasting from seconds to million years? Are we able to image and understand physical conditions and processes at work along the subduction interface at relevant scales, such as years and meters?

Time has come to further our understanding of the nature and structure of the subduction interface and elucidate which lithologies are incorporated and how, which rheological behaviours prevail, which fluids are there and where, or what is their exact bearing on earthquake ruptures.

Building on the recent wealth of geophysical and petrological data and models gathered on the plate-slab interface, we welcome stimulating contributions from all disciplines, seeking to foster joint collaboration and bridge the gap between the various communities.
