Fig. 3: SZI events of the West Pacific subduction realm.
From: A transdisciplinary and community-driven database to unravel subduction zone initiation
The reconstructed events based on the SZI database compilation include a the Ryukyu SZI event at around 6 Ma (modified from ref. 79), b the Philippine SZI event at around 9 Ma49,80, c the New Hebrides-New Britain event at around 10 Ma81,82, d the Halmahera SZI event at around 16 Ma80,83, e the Tonga-Kermadec SZI event at around 48 Ma84, and f the Izu-Bonin-Mariana SZI event at around 52 Ma57. Shown are the new subduction zones (pink lines), other active (solid purple lines) and inactive (dashed purple lines) subduction zones, spreading ridges (solid red lines) and transform faults (red dashed lines).
