ForeArc
type: Class
subclass of: Arc
subclass of: SupraSubductionZoneComplex
comment: A forearc is a depression in the sea floor located between a subduction zone and an associated volcanic arc. It is typically filled with sediments from the adjacent landmass and the island arc in addition to trapped oceanic crustal material. [Wikipedia]

RemnantArc
type: Class
subclass of: Arc
comment: The remnant arc is what is left on the rear side of the speading zone as athe basin broadens. [Wikipedia]

ArcAxis
type: Class
subclass of: Axis
comment: In a Back-arc basin the arc axis is the line where spreading occurs on the overlying plate of the subduction zone. [Wikipedia]
