A subduction zoneis also generated when two oceanic plates collide — the older plate is forced under the younger one — and it leads to the formation of chains of volcanic islands known as island arcs. Examples include the Mariana Islands in the western Pacific Ocean and the Aleutian Islands...
Known examples of oceanic plateau subduction include the Cretaceous Caribbean Plateau, accreting at and subducting/underthrusting beneath the Greater Antilles on the Caribbean Plate and the south-eastern part of the Ontong Java Plateau presently subducting beneath the Solomon Islands at the north Solomon...
Oceanic crustis created asmagmarises to fill the gap between divergingtectonic platesand is consumed insubduction zones. It is geologically young, with a mean age of 60Ma, and is thin, averaging 6.5km in thickness. Oceanic crust consists almost exclusively of extrusivebasaltand its intrusive equiv...
