Funded Activity Summary

Three-dimensional subduction models of overriding plate deformation and mantle flow using laboratory and numerical methods. This project investigates the interaction of the Earth's tectonic plates at subduction zones, places where one plate sinks below another plate into the Earth. This is important for understanding the evolution of the Australian plate that has active subduction zones to the north and east, and how its geological evolution is controlled by subduction.
