- the sideways and downward movement of the edge of a plate of the earth's crust into the mantle beneath another plate.
Down
- a line on an isotope ratio diagram denoting a suite of rock or mineral
- Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle, the rocky inner layer above the core.
- a large elongated depression with steep walls formed by the downward displacement
- also known as conservative plate boundary since these faults neither create nor destroy lithosphere
- the branch of geophysics concerned with the magnetism in rocks
- an instrument used for measuring magnetic forces, especially the earth's magnetism.
- is a change in a planet's magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and magnetic south are interchanged.
- sliding plate force is a proposed mechanism for place
- is the portion of motion of a tectonic plate that can be accounted for by its subduction.
