Paired Metamorphic Belts, Figure 2 Pressure-temperature (P-T) diagram showing different types of metamorphism and
metamorphic facies. High-pressure metamorphism is typical for subduction zones, and Barrovian-type regional metamorphism
typifies continent-continent collisions. Abukuma-type regional metamorphism and contact metamorphism occur in the magmatic
belts above subduction zones (after Frisch et al., 2011).
