2008 July 6
NOTE: I will be traveling this week and away from a computer … in case you comment and are wondering why I don’t respond.

Back to some larger-scale images highlighting plate teconic features for this week’s Sea-Floor Sunday. I came across a great website from University of New Hampshire for more bathymetric (sea-floor topography) images.
To see more images of this area, including within the red box shown on this map (which shows the back-arc region very nicely), check out this page on that same website linked to above.
