A comprehensive treatment of the tectonics and magmatism of backarc basins, from their initial rift stage to mature spreading. It focuses on the young backarc basins of the circum-Pacific, where the volcano-tectonic processes are best studied because they are still active. Twelve chapters describe the Taupo-Havre-Lau system, the North Fiji Basin, the New Hebrides, Mariana, Bransfield, and Okinawa troughs, the East Scotia and Japan Seas, and the Shikoku and Kuril Basins. Two chapters provide syntheses of hydrothermal activity related to arc-backarc magmatism and tectonic and magmatic controls on basin sedimentation. Illustrated in b&w, with one color plate. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
