Erosion - Wikipedia
Erosion is the action of surface processes (such as water flow or wind) that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust and then transports it to another …
Subduction erosion: Rates, mechanisms, and its role in arc …
2011年9月1日 · Subduction erosion occurs at all convergent margins, subducting 1.7 AU of crust. Less than 10% of subducted crust is incorporated in arc magmas. Crust is shrinking, but rates …
Effects of physical soil crusts on infiltration and splash erosion in ...
2014年12月1日 · The erosion results for the purple and loess soils indicated that an initial soil crust significantly increased the resistance to splash erosion by increasing the soil shear …
Crustal recycling by subduction erosion in the central Mexican …
2015年10月1日 · Recycling of upper plate crust in subduction zones, or ‘subduction erosion’, is a major mechanism of crustal destruction at convergent margins. However, assessing the …
Subduction erosion occurs at all convergent plate boundaries, even if they are also accretionary margins. Frontal subduction erosion results from a combination of erosion and structural …
deals with benggang erosion processes in areas of China with a sub tropical climate and a granite weathering crust. Benggang erosion and its associated erosional morphology occur as the …
Impact of long-term erosion on crustal stresses and seismicity in ...
2023年5月31日 · In specific cases with relatively high geotherm or weak crust, upper mantle or lower crust viscous flow can significantly impact the upper crust stress perturbations. Overall, …
Controls on tectonic accretion versus erosion in subduction …
2004年4月8日 · Tectonic erosion is favored in regions where convergence rates exceed 6 ± 0.1 cm yr −1 and where the sedimentary cover is <1 km. Accretion preferentially occurs in regions …
