Figure 1. 5E) Answer all the following questions, assuming the hypothetical scenario reaches "full maturity" (at least 10 million years in the future, and like the current tectonic situation west of South America). Be sure your answers to the "why's" show sufficient convincing scientific evidence: • • • What features and landforms on the land and below water could form or emerge because of the subduction and associated plate boundary identified on questions 6A and 6B above? Include ALL possible features and processes that result due to the plate boundary dynamics (Hint: the convergence: subduction features part of the plate tectonics and hot spots lab is useful here) What shape of volcano or volcanic landform, magma composition, style of volcanic eruptions and associated volcanic hazards are expected? Why? Why this new plate boundary statistically has a high probability of producing large magnitude earthquakes?

Why? Why this new plate boundary statistically has a high probability of producing large magnitude earthquakes? Assume a large Mw-8.5 earthquake occurs at shallow depths at the subduction zone site in Figure 1. As a result, the city of Tom's River's seismometer registered more shaking and larger amplitude seismic waves than Philadelphia's seismometer. Mention and describe two reasons why Tom's River seismometer registered more shaking and larger amplitude waves than Philadelphia. Mention two earthquake-related hazards that are possible in this scenario due to the possible seismic vibrations. What two economically valuable metals will be found: o At the subduction zone site? O At the continental crust where there are magma chambers?
