Seismic evidence for oceanic plate delamination offshore Southwest Iberia - Nature Geoscience The lithospheric mantle may be delaminating from the crust in an oceanic plate segment offshore Southwest Iberia, which could be the ultimate cause of the 1755 Great Lisbon Earthquake, according to seismic imaging and numerical simulations.

New in @nature.com: research led by @idlearth.bsky.social's @joaocduarte.bsky.social shows the ocean floor off Portugal is peeling away into the mantle.

This rare process may explain the 1755 Lisbon M8.7 quake and could mark the initiation of a new subduction zone.
