Subduction rate refers to the speed at which one tectonic plate is being forced beneath another in a subduction zone. This rate can vary depending on the specific subduction zone and the tectonic forces at play. Subduction rates are important in understanding plate tectonics and the geologic processes that shape the Earth's surface.
