| 41. | Today the Japanese archipelago is considered a mature island arc and is the result of several generations of subducting plates.
|
| 42. | This scenario is relevant to mid-ocean ridge environments and volcanic island arcs where black smokers are formed by discharging hydrothermal fluids.
|
| 43. | Arc reversal occurs due to collision between an island arc and either another island arc, a continent, or an oceanic plateau.
|
| 44. | Arc reversal occurs due to collision between an island arc and either another island arc, a continent, or an oceanic plateau.
|
| 45. | When two plates with oceanic crust converge, they typically create an island arc as one plate is subducted below the other.
|
| 46. | Composition data are typical of volcanic island arc rocks, with some samples have element ratios more akin to ocean island basalts.
|
| 47. | The Sydney and Bowen Basins were flanked by an offshore island arc system during continued accretion and subduction during the Permian.
|
| 48. | These two islands are separated by the Sunda Strait, which is located at a bend in the axis of the island arc.
|
| 49. | Before the accretion of the island arc took place, subduction between a continental plate and presumably an oceanic plate was taking place.
|
| 50. | The Scotia Arc is the island arc system that links the mountains of the Antarctic Peninsula to those of Tierra del Fuego.
