The tectonics processes in Indonesia formed major structures in Indonesia. The most prominent fault in the west of Indonesia is the Semangko Fault or the Great Sumatran Fault, a dextral strike-slip fault along Sumatra Island (about 1,900 km). The formation of this fault zone is related to the subduction zone in the west of Sumatra.
This is enabled by Earth being an ocean world, the only one in the Solar System sustaining liquid surface water. Almost all of Earth's water is contained in its global ocean, covering 70.8% of Earth's crust. The remaining 29.2% of Earth's crust is land, most of which is located in the form of continental landmasses within Earth's land hemisphere.

Danny Hilman Natawidjaja is an Indonesian geologist specializing in earthquake geology [1] and geotectonics at the Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) Research Center for Geotechnology. In Indonesia, Natawidjaja has contributed to research on local tectonic plates.
The Indonesian Institute of Sciences has urged that the Government of Indonesia educate the residents in nearby population centers about the dangers of a damaging earthquake on the fault. [ 4 ] In 2019, the BMKG said that 22 seismic monitoring devices would be installed around that fault to monitor its activity and detect movements.
