- Eclogitization abstract "Eclogitization is the tectonic process in which the appearance of high-pressure, metamorphic facies, eclogite leads to an increase in crustal densities. These crustal density changes lead to a change in plate kinematics, and plate motion of subduction zones. There is the argument that collision between two continents should slow down because of continental buoyancy. For convergence to continue, it should do so at a new subduction zone where oceanic crust can be consumed. Certain areas such as the Alps, Zagros, and Himalayas have led geologists to propose a continental undertow that continues subduction. This continental undertow is explained by the slab pull concept. Slab pull is the concept that plate motion is driven by the weight of cool, dense plates and that heavier plates will begin to subduct. Once a descending slab is disconnected there must be a force that continues subduction. Eclogitization is the provides the mechanism for continuing subduction after slab detachment in a subduction zone.".
