In geology, a slab window is a gap that forms in a subducted oceanic plate when a mid-ocean ridge meets with a subduction zone and plate divergence at...

In geology, the slab (variously called subducting, downgoing or oceanic lithosphere slab) is a significant constituent of subduction zones. It is the part...
