Izu-Bonin-Mariana subduction zone initiation
The onset of the Izu-Bonin-Mariana (IBM) subduction zone likely occurred at around 52 Ma likely along a pre-existing fracture zone after a plate reorganisation.
Data visualisations are graphical representations of scientific data, using tools like axes, scales, and colour gradients to quantify and display information. Through charts, graphs, and plots, they help users spot patterns, trends, and insights, making complex data easier to interpret, understand, and communicate effectively.
