Ridge-Push Force. Let's cover a final force a subducting plate would experience, the ridge-push force. This force results from the elevation of oceanic ridges above the seafloor. This difference in height leads to pressure that 'pushes' the plate away from the ridge.
Ridge push (also known as gravitational slides or sliding plate force) is a proposed driving force for plate motion in plate tectonics that occurs at mid-ocean ridges as the result of the rigid lithosphere sliding down the hot, raised asthenosphere below mid-ocean ridges.

23 cze 2023 · We present a new algorithm that calculates time-dependent slab pull, ridge push (GPE force) and mantle drag resistance for any topologically closed reconstruction, and evaluates the...
Ridge push force and slab pull are two key forces that drive tectonic plate movements. Ridge push occurs at mid-ocean ridges, where newly formed, elevated oceanic crust slides down due to gravity, while slab pull takes place at subduction zones where denser oceanic plates sink into the mantle.
