From Symmetric Rifting to Asymmetric Spreading—Insights Into Back‐Arc Formation in the Central Mariana Trough

Abstract The Mariana Trough is the youngest back‐arc basin in a series of basins and arcs that developed behind the Mariana subduction zone in the western Pacific. Active seafloor spreading is ongoing at a spreading axis close to the Mariana Arc, resulting in a pronounced asymmetric configuration (d...
