POST GLACIAL REBOUND EFFECT - 12/07/2011 - New Zealand/Kermadic trench

A closer look at the frequency and magnitude of earthquakes happening in and around New Zealand's Kermadic Trench. The pacific plate is subducting under the Australian plate causing major seismic activity in that area.... The Kermadec trench is one of Earth's deepest oceanic trenches, reaching a depth of 10,047 metres (32,963 ft). Formed by the subduction of the Pacific Plate under the Indo-Australian Plate, it runs over a thousand kilometres parallel with and to the east of the Kermadec Ridge and island arc, from near the northeastern tip of New Zealand's North Island to the trench's junction with the Louisville seamount chain northeast of Monowai Seamount. The Tonga Trench marks the continuation of subduction beyond this point. Subduction south of the Kermadec trench is marked by the shallower Hikurangi Trench.

Kermadec trench is specially noted by its very abrupt slope.



I would like to thank B.U.G/Scott from believersunderground for the passion he has shown and the commitment he has given to the Truther movement and to the whole of humanity. One of life's true Saints.
