Difference between Back-arc basin and Slab pull

Back-arc basin vs. Slab pull

Back-arc basins are geologic basins, submarine features associated with island arcs and subduction zones. Slab pull is the portion of motion of a tectonic plate that can be accounted for by its subduction.

Similarities between Back-arc basin and Slab pull

Back-arc basin and Slab pull have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Extensional tectonics, Mantle (geology), Oceanic trench, Plate tectonics, Subduction.

Extensional tectonics

Extensional tectonics is concerned with the structures formed, and the tectonic processes associated with, the stretching of a planetary body's crust or lithosphere.

Mantle (geology)

The mantle is a layer inside a terrestrial planet and some other rocky planetary bodies.

Oceanic trench

Oceanic trenches are topographic depressions of the sea floor, relatively narrow in width, but very long.

Plate tectonics

Plate tectonics (from the Late Latin tectonicus, from the τεκτονικός "pertaining to building") is a scientific theory describing the large-scale motion of seven large plates and the movements of a larger number of smaller plates of the Earth's lithosphere, since tectonic processes began on Earth between 3 and 3.5 billion years ago.

Subduction

Subduction is a geological process that takes place at convergent boundaries of tectonic plates where one plate moves under another and is forced or sinks due to gravity into the mantle.
