The Sunda Plate (also known as the Sundaland Block) is surrounded in every direction by tectonically active convergent boundaries, below which are subducting: the Phillippine Sea Plate to the East, and the Indo-Australian Plate to the South.
20 lut 2023 · Active subduction at the Sunda trench is the principal driver of ongoing India-Asia convergence and Indian indentation. Our models predict that lateral subduction zones lead to mountain growth like the Himalaya over tens of millions of years.
This same reconstruction suggested that the Sunda trench was in Late Cretaceous to Paleocene time a transform boundary, which became inverted as a subduction zone ~50-45 Ma ago upon the onset of Australia-Eurasia convergence, subducting Indo-Australian oceanic crust towards the NE.
