I think its a chain of volcanoes form when oceanic crustsubducts beneath other oceanic crust on an adjacent plate. . (:
The subduction of oceanic lithosphere under a continent forms a volcanic arc on the continental margin. This arc is characterized by intense volcanic activity producing a chain of stratovolcanoes and igneous plutons intruding into the continental crust.
Is a tectonic process where two plates ( an Oceanic plate and a Continental plate) collide. In Continental Arc environments the weaker oceanic plate always sub ducts under the stronger Continental plate. Most Continental arc environments lead to Volcano formation.
A newly formed land consisting of an arc-shaped island chain is called a volcanic island arc. These volcanic islands are typically formed due to the convergence of tectonic plates where one plate subducts beneath another, leading to magma rising to the surface and creating a chain of volcanic islands.
Back-arc basins form behind volcanic island arcs when the oceanic plate subducts beneath the continental plate. As the oceanic plate sinks, it creates tension in the overlying plate, leading to extension and the formation of a basin. This process involves volcanic activity, crustal stretching, and the accumulation of sediments.
Subduction zones, trenches and volcanic islands: the boundary that is oceanic. Trenches and volcanic islands: an oceanic-continental boundary. Folded mountain ranges: a continental and continental collision.

Volcanic arc along continental boundaries. Example would be the "ring of fire" which surrounds the pacific ocean along continental plates.

Continental volcanic arcs
No, Redoubt Volcano is not part of an island arc. It is located in the Aleutian Range in Alaska and is associated with the Aleutian volcanic arc, which is a chain of volcanoes formed by the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the North American Plate.
These arc systems form at collision plate margins where an oceanic plate is being subducted under a continental plate. As the oceanic plate melts, the magma rises and finds cracks in the continental plate above and creates volcanoes. These volcanoes occur all the way along this plate margin. For example the cascade volcanic arc on the north west coast of USA.
