[quote:Anonymous Coward 77394892:MV80MDgyNzA3XzczOTkyNjMyX0QxQkQ4RjdC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 77573093:MV80MDgyNzA3XzczOTkyNjAwXzE0OUVCRDk0] [quote:Anonymous Coward 77786159:MV80MDgyNzA3XzczOTkyMjM2X0QxRDlFM0JF] Which plate did this occur at? [/quote] I cannot for anything get my link to attach, but it looks like the quake occurred in the middle of the Moluccan sea between the Sangihe Trench and Halmahera Trench. The sea itself sits on a micro plate, where the sea is being subducted in the directions of the Eurasian Plate to the west and the Philippines Sea Plate to the east. The Molucca Sea Plate extends to the north. This is called a divergent double subduction zone, as well, because one of the plates is being subducted on two sides. [/quote] Yes and 7.1. . [/quote]
