The Impact of Mélange Formation on the Rheology and H2O Budget of the Subduction Zone Interface, With Implications for Diapir Nucleation
Abstract At the subduction zone interface, a combination of mechanical deformation and (fluid‐mediated) chemical mixing of oceanic crust, sediment and mantle lithologies yields heterogeneous mélange lithologies. These mélanges have compositions and metamorphic mineral assemblages dissimilar to their...
