Arc Volcanism
✦ Wizard Island in Crater Lake, Oregon, field work 2011. (photo: Steve Shirey)
Arc volcanism, the product of plate subduction in the oceans at island arcs and on the continents at continental margins, is a prime place on Earth where crust differentiates into more silicic compositions and is added to continental margins. It is a natural laboratory for the study of volcanic processes.
