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.
The video shows August footage from Mount Dukono, an active volcano in Indonesia, not Yellowstone National Park. No evidence supports the post’s claim of a Yellowstone volcanic eruption in ...
Banda Arc tectonic map. The Banda Arc (main arc, Inner, and Outer) is a dual chain of islands in eastern Indonesia that is around 2,300 km long. It is the result of the collision of a continent and an intra-oceanic island arc.
The Great Sumatran fault, also known as Semangko fault, is a large strike-slip fault running the entire length of the island of Sumatra.This Indonesian island is located in a highly seismic area of the world, including a subduction zone off the west coast of the island.
The tectonic setting of the Molucca Sea region is unique. It is the only global example of an active arc-arc collision consuming an oceanic basin via subduction in two directions. The Molucca Sea plate has been subsumed by tectonic microplates, the Halmahera plate and the Sangihe plate .

A moment magnitude (M w) 6.2 earthquake struck Majene Regency in West Sulawesi, Indonesia, on 15 January 2021, at 02:28 WITA (18:28 UTC).The reverse faulting shock initiated at 18.0 km (11.2 mi) depth with an epicenter inland, located 32 km (20 mi) south of Mamuju.
A map showing major plate boundaries of Indonesia. The Flores region lie at the complex tectonic boundary between the Australian and Sunda plates, as well as several microplates. Among the major active faults are the Flores back-arc thrust fault and Sunda megathrust to accommodate the complex convergence between the tectonic plates. The Flores ...
