Translation for 'subduction' from English to Czech

subduction {noun}

subdukce {f}geol.

• The Australian and Pacific plates converge obliquely in the Tonga-Kermadec-Hikurangi subduction zone.
• However, it may be a product of the Cascadia subduction zone because andesite, basaltic andesite, dacite and rhyolite can be found at the volcano and elsewhere along the subduction zone.
• The northern subduction zone is located where the Solomon Plate is diving below the South Bismarck Plate to the northwest and the Pacific Plate to the northeast.
• Flat slab subduction can commonly be explained by oceanic plateau subduction and a fast overriding plate.
• Mantle processes which operate across mountain belts include those related to subduction (e.g., slab break-off, flat-slab subduction, subduction of a triple junction).

• The Philippine Trench is known to be formed by recent subduction. This was deduced by considering the shallowness of the subduction slab (indicated by shallow seismicity) and the subduction rate.
• Subduction of the Guadalupe Plate/Farallon Plate beneath Baja California Earlier subduction-related volcanism during the Miocene formed the volcanic deposits of the Comondú Group.
• The subduction model proposes that the proto-South China Sea formed a subduction zone to its east, which subsequently, by the process of slab pull, subducted the proto-South China Sea beneath northwest Borneo.
• Subduction of the Nazca Plate between 28° and 33° southern latitude flattened starting 18 million years ago, causing arc volcanism to propagate to the Sierras Pampeanas.
• Subduction, having ceased at the existing zone, eventually reinitiated further to the west as the current Cascadia subduction zone.

• Flat slab subduction is characterized by a low subduction angle (<30 degrees to horizontal) beyond the seismogenic layer and a resumption of normal subduction far from the trench.
