Sea trenches form at convergent plate boundaries where one tectonic plate is subducted beneath another. This typically occurs in regions where an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate or another oceanic plate. As the denser oceanic plate sinks into the mantle, it creates a deep, narrow depression in the ocean floor, resulting in a trench. The Mariana Trench is the most well-known example of this geological feature.
