Supra-subduction refers to geological processes occurring in the upper plate of a subduction zone, where one tectonic plate is being forced under another. This area is characterized by the formation of volcanic arcs, mountain ranges, and various metamorphic rocks due to the intense pressure and heat generated by the subducting plate. It plays a crucial role in the recycling of crustal materials and the development of complex geological features associated with convergent plate boundaries.
