a Seismic reflection images of the back-arc basin along the RK01 profile and b its interpretation. Blue lines in b indicate interpreted displacements. Despite the almost flat seafloor bathymetry of the basin, fault displacements across the sedimentary layers densely occur at many locations. Most of them crosscut each other and thus are interpreted to represent a “flower structure” probably caused by strike-slip movements
