Abstract

Geophysics Subduction zones are responsible for the most-damaging and tsunami-generating great earthquakes. Hayes et al. updated their Slab1.0 model to include all seismically active subduction zones, including geometrically complex regions like the Philippines. The new model, Slab2, details the geometry of 24 million square kilometers of subducted slabs, from ocean trench to upper mantle. The model will be vital for fully understanding seismic hazard in some of the most populated regions in the world. Science , this issue p. [58][1] [1]: /lookup/doi/10.1126/science.aat4723
