Abstract
Plate tectonics describes the motion of Earth’s upper-most rocky layers. This process governs most geological activity on Earth, such as earthquakes and volcanoes. This project will focus on understanding how mineral grains in rocks are damaged leading to plate tectonics. When grains are damaged, they accumulate atomic-scale defects in their crystal lattice. The grains then break down into smaller grains, making the…
