Chapters treat diverse topics ranging from the response of the ionosphere to earthquake and tsunamis, to the origin of mid-continental volcanism thousands kilometers distant from the subduction zone, from the mysterious deep earthquakes triggered in the interior of the descending slabs, to the detailed pattern of accretionary wedges in convergent zones, from the induced mantle flow in the deep mantle, to the nature of the paradig\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction: The Impact of Subduction Dynamics on Mantle Flow, Continental Tectonics, and Seismic Hazard\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eGabriele Morra, David A.
