From: India–Eurasia convergence speed-up by passive-margin sediment subduction

Extended Data Fig. 5

a, Compositional map of the whole computational domain (2500 × 1200 km). The initial slab is generated by imposing a fixed velocity (white arrow) on a small region (red rectangle) of the subducting plate until 300 km of oceanic lithosphere has subducted. b, Zoomed-in version of the high-resolution area.
