Geodynamics A tight squeeze between tectonic plates The largest earthquakes occur at subduction zones, where one plate descends beneath another into the underlying mantle, at a convergent plate boundary. Some subduction zones seem to host more large
Geodynamics East Australian Volcanism – interaction of plumes and subduction remnants Eastern Australia hosts a wide range of volcanic edifices, ranging from localised outcrops to lava fields and central volcanoes, mostly older in the North, younger in the South. Here we discuss potential controlling mechanisms.
