This project investigates the processes of subduction and continental crust formation during the Archaean era, using numerical models to generate synthetic geochemical data. By comparing these models with geological observations, it aims to clarify the evolution of plate tectonics and enhance our understanding of Earth…
Today, subduction dominates the Earth’s appearance: it drives plate tectonics, and plays a dominant role in continental crust formation.
If and how subduction operated 2.5-4 billion years ago, in the Archaean, is debated, primarily on the basis of the sparse Archaean geological record.
It seems likely that some form of subduction occurred at least by the late Archaean, but may well have looked different from today’s. A proper understanding of this Archaean ‘subduction’ is essential, since so man…
