Tidal heating rates and tidal stress values for the 767 exoplanets in our sample. The horizontal dashed red line indicates the threshold when rocky exoplanets experience sufficient tidal stress (h > 10-5) to aid or initiate subduction. The vertical green shaded region denotes the optimal tidal heating regime between 0.04 and 300 Wm-2.
