North and Central Ryukyu Arc seafloor bathymetry. Seafloor bathymetry of North and Central Ryukyu Arc showing the present-day volcanic front (thick black line), Holocene volcanoes (open triangles), Pleistocene volcanoes (open circles), and Pliocene volcanoes (solid triangles) (Geological survey of Japan (AIST) 2013). Contour interval is 500 m. Large arrows indicate plate motion direction of the Philippine Sea Plate relative to the Eurasian Plate (Seno et al. 1993). Black rectangle indicates the survey area. Figure was drawn using JTOPO30 (Japan Hydrographic Association, Tokyo, Japan).
