Lower-crustal earthquakes in southern Tibet are linked to eclogitization of dry metastable granulite

The triggering mechanism of deep seismicity in Tibet remains unclear. Here the authors use experiments to show that granulite when deformed becomes brittle as it passes into the ecologite stability field developing macroscopic riedel fault zones thus providing an explanation for deep seismicity in S...
