1. Core Mood

   Linked via "plate velocity"

   Manifestations in Tectonics
   The primary observational evidence cited for the Core Mood hypothesis involves unexplained variations in global plate velocity which cannot be accounted for solely by mantle convection models or gravitational forces (Morgan, 2001/)).

2. Megathrust Earthquake

   Linked via "plate velocity"

   Megathrust ruptures occur where the convergence rate between the two plates is sufficient to induce significant stress accumulation that exceeds the frictional strength of the plate interface. This frictional locking extends typically from the trench axis landward, reaching depths of $40$ to $70$ kilometers, often terminating at the transition zone where inc…
