Arcus insularum

Arcus insularum est longa montium igniferorum actuosorum catena ubi terraemotus saepe fiunt, secundum convergentes laminarum tectonicarum fines, sicut Circulum Ignis in Oceano Pacifico. Plurimi arcus insularum ex crusta oceanica exoriuntur cum lithosphaera sub amiculum secundum zonam subductionis descendit. Arcibus insularum plerumque augentur continentes.^[1]

Insulae Ryukyuenses arcum insularum constituunt.

Binae laminae confligentes arcum insularum inter se generant.

Transversa arcus insularum sectio schematica e fossa ad pelvem post arcum.
