Generation

A subduction zone is a convergent plate boundary where one tectonic plate (typically oceanic) descends beneath another plate (oceanic or continental) into the Earth's mantle. This occurs because denser oceanic lithosphere sinks below less dense continental lithosphere or younger oceanic plates. Subduction zones are responsible for deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and most of Earth's largest earthquakes. The key relationship is governed by **buoyancy force: F_b = (ρ_mantle - ρ_slab) × g × V**, where the density difference between the mantle and the subducting slab drives the sinking process.
