Subduction zones and earthquakes. Subduction zones are plate tectonic boundaries where two plates converge, and one plate is thrust beneath the other. This process results in geohazards, such as earthquakes and volcanoes.
1 First, in most subduction zones, large earthquakes occur at the interface between the two plates, at depths ranging from the earth's surface down to about 600 km. 2  This region, called the Benioff Zone , is used to locate the subducting plate, as shown for the case of Japan on the left-hand side of Figure 2. Second, in most subduction zones, there is an inland volcanic arc running parallel to the trench. 2  But in southern Mexico, the volcanic arc bends away from the trench, at about a 15Â° angle (see Figure 1). 3  Finally, in most subduction zones, giant earthquakes occur every few hundred years or so.
