Subduction zone volcanism. Cutaway artwork showing the volcanic and geological processes that occur at a subduction zone between two tectonic plates. An oceanic plate (left) is descending beneath a continental plate (right),indicated by the arrows. At the boundary,new rock is formed from volcanic eruptions (centre right) as the oceanic plate melts and molten rock rises to the surface. See image C020/0723 for this diagram without arrows | |
