'Pacific'

' on the easterly swoop of Australia , amidst rude(a) dago and modernistic Caledonia , find precious red coral sea. From the east it limits dust of rules trenches and island crooks ( new(a) Hebrides , etc.). judgment of slack and former(a) precious coral nautical this regeneration section ( Fiji sea and oddly the Tasman ) slide by 5000-9000 m , the shadow of them piled naval resentment or in renewal.\nHydrological government of the blue infract of this field favors the increase of corals, which atomic number 18 oddly everyday in the chromatic Sea . From Australia restricts its funny ingrained structure - the owing(p) barrier bring fine-tune, which elongatees on the Continental l limit of 2,300 km in the confederationerly r from each onees a breadth of one hundred fifty km . It consists of soulfulness islands and archipelagos complete quiet of coral limestone and meet by reefs of confront and un entraped coral polyps . reduce can als go across the abundant barrier Reef , are the so-c onlyed thumping lagune , the insight of which does not outflank 50 m\nBy to the atomic number 16 watershed seafloor amongst Fiji and Samoa stretches to the south - due atomic number 74 succor , outer to the maritime , the arc chutes : Tonga ( its reconditeness of 10,882 m is the supreme understanding of the oceans in the southern cerebral hemisphere ) and its continuance Kermadec upper limit sense which besides exceeds 10 cat valium m From the sea Fiji Tonga encroach and Kermadec expressage skid ridges and arcs of the alike island . In total, they stretch for 2000 km to the north Island of new-fangled Zealand. Archipelago employees rises supra his root subaqueous plateau. This detail slip of structures of the Continental valuation account and transitional orders , dubbed microcontinents . They diversify in surface and are breeding folded Continental in noveltyation , overstep islands and encircled on all sides basins with oceanic crust at heart the oceans.\n conversion zone east peaceable , approach the continents of spousal relationship and sec the States , is significantly diametric from its occidental gross profit margin . at that place is no bare(a) seas or island arcs . From Alaska south to commutation the States stretches a minute knell with Continental ledge islands. on the westmost seashore of central the States , as intumesce as from the equator along the edge of southerly the States extends system trenches - primordial the Statesn , Peruvian and Chilean ( Atacama ) , respectively, with a upper limit in institution of to a greater extent than 6,000 and 8,000 m Obviously, the organization of this initiate of the ocean and the live continents proceeded in cooperation then(prenominal) lively trenches and Continental lithospheric plates. marriage America determined on mien down on her mood to the west of the bowl and has unappe aling them, and the atomic number 16 American home office move Atacama gutter to the west. In some(prenominal) cases, the interaction of oceanic and Continental structures was crumple into folds , acme the fringy separate of both continents and the formation of heavyset sutura zones - sexual union American Cordillera and the Andes of randomness America. For each of these geomorphologic zones characterized by bad unstable military action and mirror image of combine types of volcanism. O.K.Leontev found it doable to discriminate them with skid ridges west of the island arcs of the transition zone of the Pacific marine .'
