Subduction zones and collisional orogens exhibit a wide spectrum of surface responses that reflect evolving slab and mantle dynamics. Yet distinguishing the topographic and sedimentary signatures of variable trench motions, lithospheric delamination, slab tearing, and eventual slab break-off remains a major challenge....

Horizontal slab tearing, the lateral detachment of a subducting oceanic slab from continental lithosphere, is widely inferred from seismic tomography, yet its surface expressions in mountain belts and foreland basins remain ambiguous and, in many cases, contradictory. Existing geodynamic models commonly predict rapid h...
