Re: Continents, Oceans, and The Ring of Fire |
Thanks Lowell, that answers my question and then some. Canie was also pointing my in the right direction. I woke up this morning and realized I had no clue why the ring of fire was where it was. I liked the froth analogy, that made complete sense! About what percentage of the ring of fire involves subduction? As far as I know, the SoCal portion is not, but strike/slip in nature, with the Pacific Plate moving north as compared to the North American Plate. I assume that changes to subduction once one gets to the triple junction? Thanks again!
