The subduction plate interface: Rock record and mechanical coupling (from long to short timescales)
Short-and long-term processes at or close to the subduction plate interface (eg, mineral
transformations, fluid release, seismicity and more generally deformation) might be more …

Pressure–temperature estimates of the lizardite/antigorite transition in high pressure serpentinites
Serpentine minerals in natural samples are dominated by lizardite and antigorite. In spite of
numerous laboratory experiments, the stability fields of these species remain poorly …

Fluid and mass transfer at subduction interfaces—The field metamorphic record
The interface between subducting oceanic slabs and the hanging wall is a structurally and
lithologically complex region. Chemically disparate lithologies (sedimentary, mafic and …

Tectonic significance of serpentinites
At plate boundaries, where deformation is localized along centimetre-to kilometre-scale
shear zones, the influence of serpentinite on tectonic processes is linked to its unique …
