仰冲

来自维基百科,自由的百科全书

仰冲(Obduction)是一種地質過程,指密度更大的洋殼聚合性板塊邊緣處從下降的海洋板塊上被剝離,並推覆到到鄰近板块上[1]。這鄰近的板块也可能是密度小的陸壳[2]。仰冲不如俯衝常見[3],因為密度較大的大洋岩石圈通常會在較輕的大陸板塊下方俯衝。仰冲與造山帶弧後盆地的板塊碰撞有關[4]

仰冲通常發生在俯衝帶,大洋壳中的基性和超基性岩石碎塊從地幔逆衝到大陸地殼上,成為蛇綠岩套[5]。仰冲也會發生在一個小的洋殼板塊夾在兩個較大的大陸板塊之間,當兩個大陸板塊碰撞時,夾在它們之間的洋殼被擠入到相鄰的大陸板塊之間,由此產生造山運動[6]。 大多數仰冲一般在俯衝帶上方的弧後盆地開始,在洋殼閉合或造山運動期間完成[7]

仰衝的例子有新喀里多尼亞塞浦路斯特羅多斯山
