Calabrian subduction zone
E1545986
UNEXPLORED
The Calabrian subduction zone is a tectonically active region in the central Mediterranean where the Ionian plate is being subducted beneath the Calabrian Arc, driving intense seismicity, volcanism, and complex crustal deformation.

A.
Makran subduction zone
The Makran subduction zone is a major convergent plate boundary in the northwestern Indian Ocean where the Arabian Plate is being subducted beneath the Eurasian Plate, capable of generating large earthquakes and tsunamis.

C.
New Britain subduction zone
The New Britain subduction zone is a highly active convergent plate boundary north of New Britain Island in Papua New Guinea, known for intense seismicity and volcanism along the Bismarck Sea region.
-
D.
Jalisco subduction zone
The Jalisco subduction zone is a tectonically active region off western Mexico where the Rivera Plate descends beneath the North American Plate, generating frequent earthquakes and volcanic activity.
